WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to | ||
recognize the Argyle Fire District crew members, whose quick | ||
thinking and decisive action saved the life of a Northlake | ||
citizen; and | ||
WHEREAS, On March 30, 2019, the Denton County Sheriff's | ||
Office dispatch center received a 9-1-1 call regarding an | ||
individual who had fallen to the floor and was unconscious in a | ||
residence; and | ||
WHEREAS, Crew members responding to the call were | ||
Lieutenant Mon Nguyen, driver-engineer Chad McInis, firefighter | ||
Brent Barnfield, firefighter-paramedic Zachary Haas, and | ||
firefighter-paramedic Jared Wells; and | ||
WHEREAS, Upon arriving at the scene, the crew discovered | ||
the unconscious citizen was without a pulse; under the leadership | ||
of lead paramedic Zachary Haas, crew members provided aggressive | ||
advanced cardiac life-support treatments until the victim | ||
regained a pulse; the patient was then transported to a Denton | ||
hospital and is currently healing at home; and | ||
WHEREAS, These exemplary first responders are truly | ||
deserving of special recognition for their courage and for saving | ||
the life of a fellow citizen; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 86th | ||
Legislature, hereby commend these outstanding Argyle Fire | ||
District members for their heroic efforts; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for | ||
the crew as an expression of high regard from the Texas Senate. | ||
