Official Investigations & Security Services, Inc. CEO Michael P Rolfes saves the life of a man....

2012-02-09T22:07:00.001-05:00

Official Investigations & Security Services, Inc. is proud to state that its CEO, Michael P Rolfes, saved the life of a man, who had gone into respiratory arrest and crashed his vehicle today into a street lamp on Clifton Ave, near the UC campus. Michael P Rolfes was en route to his residence after conducting an investigation to locate a wanted fugitive.

Michael was alerted to the incident by several passerby's who were screaming that the man in the SUV was slumped over in the seat and was turning blue. Several attempts were made to get into the vehicle but a screwdriver and window center punch failed to smash out the back window. Another passerby provided a hammer which successfully allowed the bystanders to gain entry into the vehicle while Michael P Rolfes set up his medical supplies to provide CPR.

The young man had a pulse but only had agonal respirations. Michael P Rolfes, a National Safety Council licensed instructor and licensed First Responder in Ohio, Kentucky & Indiana, began providing rescue breaths. He maintained a pulse throughout. After 10-12 minutes, the man regained consciousness, was talking with the Cincinnati Fire EMS crew and was transported to University Hospital in Cincinnati.
