(ClickOnDetroit<\/a>) \u2013 An officer with the Northville Township Police Department saved a life Monday on his first day on the job.<\/p>\n

Tyler Schmittou, 23, responded to a 911 call around 8 p.m., when a 62-year-old man was in cardiac arrest. It was the first call of his career.<\/p>\n

Officers performed CPR and used an automated external defibrillator to shock the man.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy dad is passed out on the floor,\u201d the 911 caller said.<\/p>\n

\u201cDoes anyone there know how to do CRP?\u201d the 911 dispatcher asked.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo,\u201d the caller said.<\/p>\n

As the dispatcher talked the man\u2019s daughter and wife through giving him chest compressions,\u00a0Schmittou\u00a0got the call.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s crazy that that would be the first one I go to,\u201d\u00a0Schmittou said. \u201cBut as you know, you never know what\u2019s going to happen.\u201d<\/p>\n

Schmittou was part of a team effort. Officers took over giving chest compressions, while\u00a0Schmittou was tasked with getting the AED ready to shock the man.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s something I will always remember, obviously, being that it\u2019s my first run, but also that it had such a great result,\u201d\u00a0Schmittou said. \u201cI hope to have many more results like this.\u201d\\<\/p>\n
