On August 6, 2019, Sgt. Carlos Hernandez and Officer Nicolas Trejo were dispatched to a medical call at 47 Northridge Drive. Upon entry into the residence, the officers located a man unconscious laying on the living room floor. The patient had suffered cardiac arrest. Sgt. Hernandez had taken an AED with him and both officers immediately took life saving measures. The AED was attached to the victim’s chest and CPR began with both officers following the CPR and AED protocols. A shock to the patient was administered. The life saving measures taken by the officers resulted in a successful resuscitation of the patient. The patient was taken to the hospital where he spent several weeks. I am pleased to report that the man survived, thanks to the quick arrival and life saving measures administered by our first responders. The Canyon Police Department, Canyon Fire Department, and EMS worked jointly together to save a life. What transpires at the onset of any event can play a significant role in a successful outcome. The actions taken on August 6, 2019 justifies the presentation of the Canyon Police Department lifesaving bar. These officers were nominated by Lt. Matthew Coggins, and Capt. John Woodard, who at the time was employed by the Canyon Fire Department. Life Saving Recognition goes to: Sgt. Carlos Hernandez 13-year veteran Currently the Midnight shift supervisor Officer Nicholas Trejo 2 ½ year veteran Hired from Dumas P.D. Been with Canyon PD since July 15, 2019 Assigned to the Evening Shift The patient was Monte Winders.
