On September 23,
2015, Bre Lasley was in her bedroom when a complete stranger climbed through
her window and attempted to murder her. For six minutes, Lasley and her younger
sister, Kayli, fought their attacker before a police officer arrived and shot
her attacker, killing him.
BL: “That’s when I saw him. And
from eight feet away, in the dark, Ben Hone gave my attacker three chances to
drop the knife, and he didn’t. Instead, my attacker extended his arm. He was
kind of playing peek-a-boo with his head from behind my head telling Ben to
step back because he’s going to stick me. And he extended his arm to come back
and stab me in the throat and when he extended his arm, his head came back from
behind my head. Our cheeks were touching and Officer Hone took one shot and
that one shot struck my attacker directly in the nose, which shut down his
central nervous system, which ultimately made him drop the knife. If he (Ben
Hone) would’ve hit him anywhere else, he (her attacker) would’ve been able to
finish his last reflex and I wouldn’t be here.
“And
I think that that’s a long way of answering your question. There was a lot of
times that heaven was there. I said Heavenly Father and I mean that. I think
that He sends help. He did send help. Elder Holland, I can’t remember what talk
it was, but he said something about how angels are dispatched to save us, and
that’s what happened to me that night. I believe that there were heavenly
angels, but I also believe that heaven dispatched earthly angels—Kayli being
one of them. Ben being one of them. Our neighbors across the street, who were
EMT students, came over with their EMT bags and had gloves and were able to
stick their fists in my wounds and keep the blood from flowing until an
ambulance got there. There were so many angels that night and there’s no way to
deny that there was heavenly help the entire time.”
