If there’s any solace from the horrific attack in Tunisia’s popular tourist city of Sousse, it’s local hero Munsaf Mayyel, who tried to stop a gunman after his violent rampage in a popular holiday resort, according to Channel 4 News.

The brave local builder threw tiles from a roof, hitting 23-year-old Seifeddine Rezgui as he passed through an alley following the beach attack, which left 38 people dead.

Daesh claimed responsibility for the deadly attack after a photo of Rezgui was posted online from sites affiliated with the militant group.

“All I did was my duty. The duty of any Tunisian and any Muslim,” Munsaf Mayyel told Channel 4 News.

Words spoken like a true believer if you ask us. Daesh definitely won't want to cross paths with this builder!
