On October 5, 2011, Officer G. Rodriguez was on routine patrol when he was flagged down by a female citizen. She had been a passenger in a car being driven by her father. Her father suffered a heart attack and was unconscious. Officer Rodriguez quickly accessed the situation and realized that the man did not have a pulse. Officer Rodriguez immediately began CPR and worked furiously to bring the man back to life. The Houston Fire Department arrived on the scene and took over. After the patient was defibrillated inside the ambulance, he regained consciousness. Houston Fire Department advised that without the immediate application of CPR, the man most likely would have died. Thanks to the life-saving efforts of Officer Rodriguez, this man’s life was spared. |
