William’s post below –
Never ever did I think that being CPR certified did I think I would have to use it. Well just driving through haverstraw seen a man trying help another man in a car that had no pulse which scared the Jesus out of me. I went to work on the guy brought him back to a pulse and breathing again by applying chest compressions. Come to learn the guy had diabetes and other issues. I will not take the glory for this but God you get all the glory as this man is headed to Nyack hospital. I will not lie all the guys that started clapping for me made feel good in my soul as I walked away. Thank you lord God for helping me to help some one else. I pray he is ok but this heat can be ugly so stay safe and becareful.
“Great work by one of my longtime friends who I met while walking a foot post with Spring Valley PD many moons ago!” – Suffern Police Department Chief Clarke Osborn.
