Witnesses have also said that she gave the killer a chance to surrender peacefully and also administered CPR after he was down.

Truly was a great cop.

Some context for those outside Australia - an Inspector is a commissioned rank in our police forces. These officers are pretty senior and most of the time their role isn't everyday police work. An inspector might, in some cases, run a very large police station or be a senior specialist investigator, but most inspectors would be engaged in leadership or executive roles. For an inspector to be the first responder to an incident like this is very rare.
