Ash said: “It didn’t look right so I walked outside and he was stood down the side of the house with a shotgun. At this point I didn’t have my baton or cuffs, just a radio. I raced up to him, grabbed him with one hand, and grabbed the weapon with the other hand.

阿什说：“看起来不太对劲，所以我走到外面，他拿着一把猎枪站在房子的一侧。此时我没有警棍或手铐，只有一台收音机。我跑到他身边，一只手抓住了他，另一只手抓住了武器。

蒂姆相信他们的出色反应归功于他们的训练。

蒂姆说：“我从事这份工作并不是为了获得奖项，虽然我真的不想受到关注，但很高兴我们所做的工作得到认可。”

Ash added: “I haven’t done anything I think was out of the ordinary that merited being brave, but the award is a really nice thing to retire on. It all came from a bit of intelligence that we thought would need a quick chat and ended with quite a good result.”

阿什补充道：“我没有做过任何我认为不寻常的事情，值得勇敢，但获得这个奖项对于退休来说确实是一件好事。这一切都来自于我们认为需要快速交谈的一些情报，并以相当好的结果结束。”
