“You can play the ‘what if’ game over and over again, but I think it’s pretty clear in his case the presence of this man and his ability to take very quick and very decisive action prevented a further tragedy,” East Peoria Police Chief Dick Ganschow said.
It was just after 8p.m. Saturday night (June 14th) when a gunman interrupted the 15-year reunion for the East Peoria High School class of 1999. The gunman burst into the reunion at Fifth Quarter Sports Bar and Pizzeria and, according to Chief Ganschow, “after just a brief moment inside the bar, he pulled out a weapon and shot a female and a male”.
Before he could get a third shot off, the gunman was struck with multiple rounds from a good guy with a gun, an off-duty FBI agent who was just having dinner at the pizzeria.
