A three month old baby boy is lucky to be alive after a quick thinking sheriff's deputy in Florida stepped in and saved his life.
From there, Nix tried to revive Kingston, but he was still unresponsive, according to the Facebook post.
"Literally tears in my eyes". THANK YOU OFFICER JAY NIX FROM THE OCALA SHERIFFS OFFICE K-9 unit! It's some much going on in this world but they still choose to put on their vest and go out and help people in need.
He ran his siren all the way to the emergency room doors. She said her 3-month-old son was unresponsive and needed help, WESH reported.
Nix told the mom to follow him in his patrol auto and held on to Kingston, driving with his siren on to Ocala Regional Medical Center.
Deputy Nix jumped into action, and despite performing several life-saving measures, couldn't get the child to respond. That prompted Nix to turn his vehicle around and pull over on the side of the road.
It's a good thing a Marion County deputy was where he was Wednesday afternoon.
"Deputy Nix delivered the child to medical personnel, who then began treating the child".
The sheriff's office announced Thursday that Kingston was doing fine and was expected to make a full recovery. Doctors credit Nix's actions with saving the infant's life. "We are tremendously proud of Deputy Nix and we can already see that he and Baby Kingston will have a deep connection that will last a lifetime!" said the Marion County Sheriff's Office.
