On August 13 at 7:27 a.m. Deputy Pacheco responded lights and sirens to a medical call of a one month old infant who was blue in color, choking, unconscious and not breathing. He ran upstairs and found the mother holding her baby. Deputy Pacheco immediately started CPR on the baby with chest compressions followed by back thrusts. The baby started to respond and was trying to dislodge what was blocking his airway. Deputy Pacheco turned the baby onto its stomach and provided several more back thrusts when the baby suddenly coughed up a white substance. The infant then started to gasp for air and began to cry. The baby's color started coming back into his face and Deputy Pacheco handed him over to paramedics with South Metro Fire. The baby was transported to Children's Hospital for further evaluation. We are pleased to report baby Carlos is now back home and doing fine. Thank you Deputy Pacheco for your quick response and diligence in saving this baby's life.
