This evening at 2342hrs, just after crews returned from the vehicle fire on E. Mill Street, QRS 3 was dispatched with the Port Area Ambulance Service to the 60 block of Church Street in the boro for a male who was unconscious and not breathing. In typical Star Hose Company fashion, Utility 34 (Capt. F. Roys) responded immediately and was on scene in just seconds. The crew began life saving efforts and, after delivering a single shock with the AED and several minutes of doing CPR, the patient began breathing on his own. After being transported by PAAS to the hospital, the man is alive and expected to make a full recovery.
Utility 34 returned to quarters within 15 minutes.

| Throughout his adult life Capt. Fred "Bull" Roys has maintained that there were two things he would never, ever do...one was to ‘get married' and the second was to ‘have children'. Today it became abundantly clear that for all these years he really had no clue what he was talking about. Congratulations to the new Mr. & Mrs. Fred Roys (and son Tayton)! |
