The brave police officer chased after the assailant before he turned on her and raised his knife.

When confronted by the knifeman, the inspector fired a valley of shots, killing the offender.

She was then seen performing CPR on the victims of the knife attack, as well as on the suspect, as she waited for backup to arrive.

Police Association of NSW boss Kevin Morton has revealed that inspector Scott doesn’t consider her actions to be heroic.

“Amy is content with what she had to do,” he said.

“She knows she has been tagged a hero but to her she was doing her job.”

When speaking to Mr Morton, Amy admitted that she didn’t get much sleep following the horror ordeal.
