Israeli forces resuscitate electrocuted Palestinian

VIDEO: Border Guards quick actions save Palestinian's life in Hebron's casbah.

Border Guard policemen on routine patrol in the Hebron casbah identified Wednesday a Palestinian lying unconscious on the floor.

 

 

A police officer and a paramedic team quickly ran to the Palestinian, while reporting the incident and calling for additional medical help. Early examination of the boy showed he was not breathing and had no pulse. The Border Guards began to resuscitate him by performing CPR, while removing obstacles in his mouth that had caused him to suffocate.

 

 

The Border Guards continued their lifesaving efforts for several minutes until the arrival of a Red Crescent medical team. The boy was then brought to the hospital.

 

The spokesperson for the Border Guards told Tazpit News Agency that as it turns out, the Palestinian had been electrocuted. However, thanks to the efforts of the policemen in those first minutes after the boy's collapse, his life was later saved in hospital.
