A West Monroe Police Department (WMPD) police officer who goes by the last name Martin was recently awarded by his superiors in Monroe Louisiana with the Life Saving Award recently at police headquarters
Officer Martin answered an emergency call from the relative of a three week old child who gender was not mentioned who had stopped breathing around lunch on Tuesday March 11 in his parent home.
Officer Martin used back blows to the infant to revive the infant on the spot. The infant did survive and is alive today thanks to the actions of Officer Martin who will simply say he was doing his duty to serve his community.

Back blows?
I have not heard of that, as normally, they give blows to the front on the chest. Maybe, the child swallowed something, and the back blows dislodged the stuck item.

The child most likely swallowed something that caused Officer Martin to give back taps to remove the food from inside the throat area of the child.

These cases are heartwarming
No doubt about that George
But why do they not just say if the child was a boy or a girl.
What's the big deal about it that they won't do it.
Christ almighty there was one where a " cattle" was captured on a highway
The text said, the.cattle, gender unknown
Well it had the biggest balls I have ever seen

That is a good question what was the gender of the child or the name.
