Kathrine Leonard was at home one afternoon when she found herself unexpectedly going into labor. As she anxiously prepared to deliver her baby on the bathroom floor, a construction worker who happened to be working on necessary repairs in the house noticed her distress and immediately sprang into action. Realizing the urgent situation at hand, the construction worker quickly called 911 for assistance.
Little did he know that his simple act of alerting the authorities would soon be crucial in saving both Kathrine's life and that of her unborn child.
Minutes felt like hours as Kathrine went through the intense labor pains, but finally, with the help of the construction worker, the baby arrived into the world. However, it became evident that something was wrong - the baby was not breathing. In a stroke of luck, police officers Steven Golub and Devin Humphries happened to be nearby when they received the emergency call.
Without hesitation, they rushed to the scene, fully aware of the dire situation they were about to face. Time was of the essence, and Golub and Humphries knew they had to act quickly. Upon reaching the bathroom, Golub observed that the baby's skin had started turning a frightening shade of blue. This only heightened the urgency of the situation, and the officers knew they had to get the baby breathing, no matter what.
Humphries, thinking on his feet, immediately asked for something that could be used for suction. Though the options were limited, the officers managed to find an eye dropper in the chaotic scene.
