Walters attempted to restrain the woman, identified as 21-year-old Olivia J. Boomsma, the \u201cmale was able to blade his body toward Sgt. Walters and forcefully kick Sgt. Walters on the right side of his face and head,\u201d according to the police department.<\/p>\n<p>The kick was so forceful Walters lost consciousness.<\/p>\n<p>Around that same time, an off-duty medical assistant who had stopped in the convenience store on her way home came to the rescue.<\/p>\n<p>Divine Savior Hospital employee Vanessa Guerra ran toward the officers after she noticed Walters had fallen unconscious. As she was checking on him, the \u201cfemale suspect was beginning to fight with Officer Loewenhagen again and was yelling about having a knife in her pocket,&#8221; police said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>From the Portage, Wisconsin Police Department&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/PortagePD\/posts\/2160734330633850\">Facebook page<\/a>;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>An off duty nurse from Divine Savior Hospital saw the struggle and realized Sgt. Walters was not moving and unconscious. The nurse came to Sgt. Walters aid and while checking on him realized the female suspect was beginning to fight with Officer Loewenhagen again and was yelling about having a knife in her pocket. Concerned that the female was going to stab Officer Loewenhagen or the unconscious Sgt. Walters, the nurse disregarded her own safety to help protect the officers and took it upon herself to engage the female suspect by body slamming the female suspect against a wall and held her there until Sgt. Walters resumed consciousness and was able to handcuff the female.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>From <a href=\"http:\/\/www.azfamily.com\/story\/38002076\/off-duty-nurse-body-slams-suspect-who-viciously-attacked-officer\">AZFamily<\/a>;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The nurse restrained the woman until Walters regained consciousness and arrested her.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When I heard the word knife, at that point I thought: &#8216;It&#8217;s going to be you or me,'&#8221; Guerra said. &#8220;At that point it was her.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tim sends a link to Fox News which tells the story of Vanessa Guerra, a nurse &hellip; <a title=\"Vanessa Guerra; saving the world\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=78996\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Vanessa Guerra; saving the world<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":78997,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[170],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-78996","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-who-knows"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78996","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=78996"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78996\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/78997"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=78996"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=78996"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=78996"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
