Officer Kyle Huewe self-dispatched himself to a call for a female who was unresponsive and believed to not be breathing. He was first to arrive and male was actively performing CPR on the female and he immediately took over chest compressions. The male asked what he could do to assist, and while Officer Huewe continued chest compressions, he gave directions to the male to set up and prep the automatic external defibrillator. Officer Huewe administered 2 shocks to the victim and shortly after Fire and EMS arrived and recovered a heartbeat prior to transport to the hospital. The patient is alive today because of the immediate and emergent response provided by the male on scene and officer Huewe.
