WHEREAS, despite sustaining injuries and facing imminent danger, Deputy Glass exhibited extraordinary courage, composure, and presence of mind by defending himself and alerting fellow deputies, actions which ultimately contributed to stopping the threat and preventing further harm; and

WHEREAS, subsequent investigation revealed that the incident was connected to a tragic homicide within the residence, further underscoring the dangerous and unpredictable nature of the situation confronted by Deputy Glass; and
