Saving a Life In New Mexico

A Police Officer in blue, received a frantic radio call about a baby in breathing difficulties… 
A mere 2 blocks away , he was told of a distressed child, choking and gasping for breath desperately…

Trained for emergencies such as these, the officer rushed over to offer life saving procedures…
Upon arrival at the site of the emergency, he took charge immediately as a well drilled officer..

With super cool efficiency, he  swung into action immediately to nullify the choking difficulty…
In no time, he averted a potential tragedy, when the choking boy was saved from his difficulty…

As an officer in blue, he was trained to perform his best, says his supervisor with obvious pride…
Seeing how one of the city finest has again acted promptly in an emergency to save a life…

The word gets around, this officer and his heroics was well lauded and put up in the internet…
Just so netizens far and near, home and abroad, can testify to his heroics of a life  saved thro the internet..

So say this unassuming hero in blue, he was a policeman at a time and place well served…
Declaring self depreciatingly, as cliché as it sounds, policemen are there to protect and  serve… 

Such fitting words that underline the nobility  of the service rendered by all those in blue ..
Well done, Sunland Park Police Department , New Mexico and especially Officer Donald Venable … !

Well done!
