On June 30, 2015, Hally Dubois and Dale Holloway intervened in an armed assault at Berland Open Camp, a remote oil site located southwest of Fox Creek, Alberta. Just before 1 a.m., the camp workers were awoken by the sound of screaming. As Ms. Dubois ran out of her room, she saw a co-worker stabbing another colleague. Pleading with the perpetrator to stop, she jumped on his back to prevent further injury, but was subsequently attacked. Mr. Holloway pursued the perpetrator outside and attempted to dissuade him through conversation. After being threatened multiple times, Mr. Holloway and three other colleagues left the premises by vehicle. Emergency services arrived on scene and the culprit was quickly apprehended. Sadly, neither Ms. Dubois nor her colleague survived.
