Schneider presented officers with flags that have flown over the U.S Capitol in their honor and praised them for their work to save lives and help bring the shooter to justice that day.
"The people, again civilians, but also those who are trained, rising up and going about a task that no one ever wants to have to do, but the people standing with me train for, prepare for, and executed with extraordinary professionalism," Schneider said.
Schneider took time to honor seven officers. Among them was the officer who pulled over the suspect and another who placed the suspect in handcuffs that day.
