Robert Bratton who is a member of the Utah Department Of Transporation Incident Management Team was at the right place at the right time in Draper Utah on Wednesday evening when Robert and a Utah State Trooper had taken care of an auto incident where a motorist from a freeway to a gasoline station. The female driver then drove toward the parking lot and stopped where the trooper and Robert were located to ask them to assist her since her five year old girl was choking on a food particle. Robert then saved the little girl's life by using the Heimlich Maneuver so she could breathe again. The mom of the girl whose name was not released was grateful that Robert and Utah trooper Lt. Colonel Mark Zesiger were there to save the life of a child who needed their assistance.

Maybe we should all learn how to save people from choking. It is very common.

I agree with you since we all need to learn first aid methods to save a person from choking on food.

The same here since the authorities are making their appearances in their community as saviors to their community.
