On December 6, 2017 Community Service Specialist Israel Vargas contacted Corporal Scott Christian and Officer Matt Light, regarding a single vehicle collision on Folsom Blvd. in front of Folsom Hall. They arrived to discover the vehicle's airbag had deployed, and the driver was left unresponsive. Officer Matt Light and Corporal Scott Christian were the first units on scene.

Both Corporal Christian and Officer Light took immediate control of the situation and assessed that the driver of the vehicle was unconscious and not breathing while slumped against the steering wheel. They attempted to reposition the driver to open her airway at which point she took one breath and began to make gurgling sounds. They also discovered she had no pulse. Read more.
