Ann Curry1: Now to a story of selfless service and heroism2. Early one morning, Deputy Sheriff Jennifer Fulford-Salvano was called to a home invasion in progress in Orlando. The 911 call was made by an eight-year-old boy whose mom and twin 2-year-old sisters were at home. When Deputy Fulford-Salvano and another deputy arrived at the house, they were ambushed3 and engaged in a shoot-out with the robbers. Deputy Fulford-Salvano was shot 7 times but managed to get the children and their mother out safely. Now for her valor4 she has been named "Police Officer of the Year" by Parade magazine and the International Association of the Chiefs of Police.

Ann Curry: Jennifer, officer, good morning and congratulations to you!

Jennifer Fulford-Salvano: Good morning!

Ann Curry: Then go back to that day in terms of what had happened. You know, you, uh, were in a situation in which you had heard from the mother, she was sent out to tell you that everything was Ok. (Right.) There were other officers there, but you decided5, you decided to go into this home, to go into the garage. What made you go in when the other officers did not?

Jennifer Fulford-Salvano: Uh, I just kept thinking about the kids, I just not knowing what was going on inside the home, I couldn't just leave them sitting there, so.

Ann Curry:So you thought, "maybe I can help these kids come out of this alive", and you, but soon after you went into the situation, you were actually, the shooting started.

Jennifer Fulford-Salvano: Right, right after I went in and checked, the doors on the car were locked, so I started to come back, outwards6 the garage door and that's when the shooting started.

Ann Curry: Shooting started, you were hit, at the, by the end of the shooting something like 7 times including in your shooting arm.

Jennifer Fulford-Salvano: Correct.

Ann Curry: And yet you continued, and then what, what made you not fall back,and, you know, you were obviously hit 7 times. Why did you keep going?

Jennifer Fulford-Salvano: Well, I mean, survival, I didn't want to die in that garage, and, um, I've recently received training for shooting, you know, if your strong hand is hit, what's to do? And I think that really helped me that day.

Ann Curry: You actually put the gun in the other hand?

Jennifer Fulford-Salvano: Right.

Ann Curry: And you were able to shoot with your other hand, your not strong hand.
