An infant is alive today after a Mesa Police Department officer and good Samaritan intervened when he stopped breathing earlier this summer. Mesa police say an officer was at a light rail station in late July to deal with a situation involving a non-compliant passenger when two women came running towards him. Body camera video shows the women handing over a baby boy who had reportedly stopped breathing. The officer began life-saving efforts on the child before a bystander, who said he was a retired paramedic, moved in to help.
