Officer saves life of woman having massive heart attack

BLANCHARD, OK (KFOR) The harrowing night began when Tina Costello started having severe chest pains, and her husband and daughter attempted to rush her to the hospital.

Their high speeds caught an officer’s attention, and he pulled them over only to find Costello having a massive heart attack.


“At that time, you don’t have a lot of time to get CPR going,” said Officer Jordan Jones of the Blanchard Police Department.

Luckily for Costello and her family, Officer Jones’ quick thinking and knowledge of CPR likely saved her life.

“It looks like she’s going to make a full recovery, because of the quick way you administered CPR,” Litty told Jones over the phone. “You definitely saved her and her mental capacities, as well.”

“That’s the first time it’s ever been, l’ve truly saved somebody’s life,” Jones cried. “It was a blessing from the Lord, right place, right time and just knowing how to respond.”
