KLTV ABC 7 TYLER Teen Who Suffered Cardiac Arrest At Montgomery School Meets With First Responders Last Friday, first responders from Montgomery County Hospital District, Montgomery Fire Department, Montgomery Police and school employees from Montgomery High School came together to celebrate the life of 16-year-old Michael Rodriguez. Michael was at school last month when he suffered cardiac arrest. He had no pulse when Megan Ruble, an athletic trainer for Montgomery High School, rushed to his side. "When I saw him, his face was blue… I started compressions and secured the AED… I pushed the button and, I swear, it was just like the movies. We continued with CPR, and the color began coming back in his face." Once the police, paramedics, and firefighters arrived, they took over Michael's care, but Megan's quick actions and CPR training proved vital in his survival.

The firefighters were taken to the hospital with burn and trauma injuries, though their injuries are not life-threatening, according to officials on scene. Multiple other firefighters have been treated at a paramedic staging area on scene as the 3-alarm blaze in the 3000 block of Barrington Lane continues to burn hours later. It was first reported around 5:30 a.m., and flames and smoke billowed from the massive, castle-like structure.

WCNC-TV NBC 36 CHARLOTTE 9/11 Firefighters and Unending Tragedy: 'Together as One Neighborhood' Jerry Sanford retired to Naples, Florida, after a 29-year career as a New York City firefighter, but the city managed to call him back to help his brothers right before one of the most critical times in the history of the United States: 9/11. Although Sanford later developed cancer potentially associated with the fumes and toxins surrounding Ground Zero, he felt it was important to recount his experiences from the weeks leading up to and following 9/11 in his book, "It Started With a Helmet: A Retired Firefighter's Return to New York City the Day Before 9/11." Within the pages of the book, which was published soon before the 20th anniversary of the attacks, readers will also find stories about Sanford's time as a New York City police officer before starting with the city's fire department, as well as his own diagnosis of adenocarcinoma, a type of lung cancer found in the glandular cells in the organ's tissues, which likely developed from his exposure to the toxic air.
