Two Lake County Sheriff's deputies are being lauded as heroes after providing life-saving aid to an elderly man who had a heart attack.
On Monday, May 22, deputies Dustin Majewski and Bucyrus Palo were on patrol near the area of the Cambridge Condominiums on Mentor Avenue in Painesville Township when they responded to a 911 call.
The elderly man had collapsed outside of his residence and was found unresponsive. The deputies worked together to administer CPR until the man started breathing again.
Shortly after his breathing started, the Painesville Township Fire Department took over aiding the man and transported him to the Tri-Point hospital.
A doctor at the hospital later spoke to the deputies, telling them that had they not been at the scene to begin CPR, the man would not have survived.
He is currently listed in critical condition.
