Trooper Ed Andersson

I scan with my flashlight and I found him standing in the emergency lane, i could tell he already had his weapon pointed at me.

I would try to get my Taser out, but every time I would do that, he would strike me in the head, and pound my head on the pavement.

Trooper Ed Andersson

As much as I fought, at one point I probably couldn't have gone on anymore, i probably wouldn't be here( if not for him).

And not just between me and him, but Thomas Yoxall family and him, too.

Trooper Ed Andersson

I hope people understand that he had to do what he had to do to save somebody else's life, getting involved isn't a bad thing, even if it's just stopping to call 911.

I get to see my grand kids grow up, my daughters get married eventually, thomas Yoxall did a fabulous thing.

Trooper Ed Andersson

I kicked him into the fast lane hoping that a car would come by and hit him.

Trooper Ed Andersson

I knew if he got my gun it'd be all over right then.

Trooper Ed Andersson

I saw a male subject kneeling and holding a female in his arms.

Trooper Ed Andersson

The next thing I hear is two shots.
