Theta Delta alumnus awarded Departmental Lifesaving Award

The Miami-Dade Police Department is pleased to announce that Officer Robert Santana Jr. has been awarded the departmental Lifesaving Award and selected Distinguished Officer of the Month for April 2015. Robert is an alumnus from the Theta Delta Chapter (Florida International).

On September 28, 2014, while on patrol, Officer Santana heard the dispatcher relay a call of a possible drowning at a residence and immediately responded. Upon arriving at the residence, Officer Santana rushed to the backyard and was met by a female who advised her husband was at the bottom of the pool. The wife stated that her husband had been swimming with their two daughters, when one of the daughters realized her father was at the bottom of the pool and called out for her mother.

The wife ran outside and attempted to pull her husband out of the pool but was not strong enough to pull him out completely. She then attempted to perform Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR), but had to stop when he began to vomit. She briefly left her husband at the side of the pool and ran into the house to call 911. When she ran back outside, she found that her husband had slipped back into the pool.
