A police officer in the state of Florida had to think quickly when he was flagged down by a mother whose baby was unresponsive.
Deputy Jeremie Nix was on his way home from his shift when he was flagged down by a motorist in Marion County on Wednesday (Thursday, NZT).
He turned around the panicked woman handed over her son, Kingston, who was unresponsive.
After a check of his condition, Deputy Nix decided that he didn't have time to wait for medics to arrive, and took matters into his own hands, rushing the infant to the nearby Ocala Regional Medical Centre.
Doctors were able to treat the three-month-old Kingston and the Marion County Sheriff's Office said on Facebook today that he had made a full recovery and left hospital.
