In most peoples eyes, only if the words "off-duty law enforcement officer" were tied to his name. What would be more ironic would be if he was 19. Hey, want me to buy you a beer? Oh, wait, nevermind.

If he's 19 and carrying a pistol he's probably in a world of legal hurt regardless of being a hero.
