Yonkers FD Save - Vehicle Into The Bronx River

[LineCapt 134]

On the Bronx River Parkway, yesterday morning, a vehicle went off the road in to the river. A good Samaritan pulled the driver from the car but was unable to get to the passenger. Engine 314 and Ladder 70 were two of the companies which responded to this incident. They flipped the car over to get the passenger, who was not breathing and unresponsive, out of the vehicle. Once out, Squad 11, and Battalion 2, who also responded, performed CPR, shocked the patient twice with the AED and brought the passenger back. They then stabilized the passenger and assisted with transport to Lawrence Hospital.

Great job by the good Samaritan.

Great job by the YFD
