The officer, now with the Catalan police force the Mossos d'Esquadra, was on patrol working overtime when five terrorists launched an attack in the seaside town of Cambrils.
The jihadis ploughed an Audi A3 into pedestrians on a promenade before crashing into a police checkpoint - overturning the vehicle and injuring one officer, who suffered a broken leg. The terrorists then jumped out armed with an axe and knives.
Using his army training and experience, the officer pulled his weapon and shot dead four of them, probably saving dozens of lives.
The fifth terrorist stabbed a woman in the neck and fled before he was shot by another officer.
