She did all the right things to de-escalate. If there are more videos, then perhaps I am wrong.
Well done, Sakura.
When I was the Chief Government Pilot at the Sikorsky Factory, I rented a room from a Sikorsky pilot, a former Marine 53 pilot from Korea.
His father was a slave during WWII in Japan. He came to America first and worked hard, eventually buying a gas station in the Bronx. He brought Yong and the rest of the family over when Yong was 15 to help manage the station.. Yong and his brother were both very high degree Black Belts in some martial art I can't pronounce.
Early on there were a few robberies, snatch and grabs. The Lee brothers always chased them down and, according to Yong, made sure they got the money back. He had great stories.
They earned a reputation and the robberies stopped.
I know it is a different day, that the bad folks are armed, but the calculus is the same: Either de-escalate or fight
Yong died in an accident at the factory. I called both his Mother and Father, separately, to deliver the news. Hardest day of my life.
