The officer should be commended for securing the assailant with only one 2 rounds. Firing 2 rounds is a common practice (you never pull the trigger just once), so to have secured the situation with a single reaction, then had the restraint to stop firing, shows true professionalism and control.
Kudos to the LAPD, and this officer specifically.

I have a personal policy to never lunge at a police officer with a knife.
As someone living in the immediate area where these incidents are occurring, I'm reminded that the good guys don't always hold themselves to the same standards they demand of the rest of us:
"The Community Resources Against Street Hoodlums (CRASH) anti-gang program initiated under the direction of LAPD Chief Daryl F. Gates in the late 1970s had encountered some success in the Rampart Division.
"However, between 19982000, graphic allegations emerged of extreme police misconduct among Rampart's CRASH squad. This misconduct involved several officers, most notably Rafael Perez.
"Perez was suspected to be involved in a bank robbery committed by another Rampart officer, David Mack; he also stole six pounds of cocaine from an LAPD evidence locker, which led to his arrest.[2]
"His most egregious act involved the shootingand framingof unarmed gangmember Javier Ovando. Perez originally claimed that Ovando had opened fire at both Perez and another officer, Nino Durden.
"The two officers then returned fire, leaving Ovando paralyzed.[3][4]
"Perez and his cohort then framed Ovando for the attack and he was found guilty and sentenced to 23 years in prison (Ovando was later released once Perez admitted to shooting and framing Ovando)[5].
"After several incidents, LAPD became suspicious of Perez and began to investigate him.
"Perez later pled guilty to the cocaine theft in exchange for information about other corrupt officers within the Rampart Division.
"In turn, Perez implicated approximately 70 officers of misconduct."

Why don't you ask Javier Ovando?As someone living in the immediate area where these incidents are occurring, I'm reminded that the good guys don't always hold themselves to the same standards they demand of the rest of us:
