A CARMEL POLICE OFFICER SAVED A MAN’S LIFE LAST WEEK BY PERFORMING THE HEIMLICH MANEUVER. BY THE TIME FIREFIGHTERS AND PARAMEDICS ARRIVED ON THE SCENE, CARMEL POLICE OFFICER GREG JOHNSON, (WHO WORKED IN THE RESTAURANT BUSINESS FOR YEARS, BEFORE BECOMING A POLICE OFFICER), HAD ARRIVED, FIGURED OUT WHAT WAS GOING ON, AND DISLODGED THE PIECE OF MEAT.
THE CHOKING VICTIM FELT GOOD ENOUGH TO TURN DOWN AN AMBULANCE RIDE TO THE HOSPITAL, AND LATER LEFT OFFICER JOHNSON A VOICEMAIL MESSAGE THANKING HIM YET AGAIN FOR SAVING HS LIFE.
