Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis recently presented members of the Florida State University Police Department with the Governor’s Medal of Heroism in honor of their bravery during the campus shooting that took place at the Student Union earlier this month.
FSUPD officers quickly responded to the April 17 shooting, neutralizing the threat in just over two minutes.
“I am immensely proud of the men and women of FSUPD,” FSUPD Chief Jason Trumbower said. “We are honored and humbled that Gov. DeSantis acknowledged our courageous officers today. This recognition is entirely about them.”
