Life Saving Incident
November 2020
Texas
San Patricio
Ingleside
Two members of the Ingleside Police Department received a big honor.
Sgt. David Piper and Detective James Pool were presented the department’s Life Saving award.
Both were recognized at the Ingleside City Council meeting on Tuesday for helping save a man's life.
The department says back in November, the two responded to a call where a man wasn't breathing and they immediately began CPR.
They were able to stabilize the man and he is expected to make a full recovery.
The history of law enforcement in the United States is a long and wonderful history of bravery. This website is dedicated to documenting the heroic deeds of law enforcement officers throughout the United States who have either given or risked their lives to save others. There are many stories of bravery and heroism for many who are considered first responders. However, it is those in law enforcement who are most likely to be the first to arrive upon a location requiring life saving acts engaging dangerous hostage takers, running into burning buildings/vehicles, providing first aid to seriously injured victims, saving near drowning victims and much more are what the women and men of law enforcement do routinely and at many times, great peril to their own safety.
It is our mission to document the history of lives saved by those dedicated women and men in law enforcement. To share with others the dramatic deeds of those individuals who are the first, first responders. It is so important for our citizens to understand that law "enforcement" is not always about enforcing the law but rather being there when our citizens need us.
It is to this end we are dedicated to promoting documentation regarding the history of law enforcement and the lives they have saved.
