―Alexander Knox

Alexander Knox from Tim Burton's movie "Batman"

His last act of bravery was during the 200th anniversary massacre, when he risked being poisoned in order to fight off Joker's thugs.

It is unknown why the Joker Goons, who were clearly stronger than Knox, did not fight back, although it could be assumed they needed to clear out to avoid dying from their own Smylex, or they were flabberghasted at seeing a civilian with such gumption to take them head on.
