Suffolk County Police Marine Bureau officers helped save a woman who was pulled unresponsive from a pool in Ocean Bay Park this afternoon.
On June 21, Sergeant Kelly Locascio and Officers Jordan Colon and Tyler Williams were on foot patrol near 56 East Bay View Walk at 1 p.m. when they heard screams coming from a backyard. Upon responding, they learned the 19-year-old childcare provider had gone underwater and failed to resurface. The homeowner had entered the pool, pulled her out and began CPR.
Williams took over CPR, and the woman regained consciousness after expelling water and beginning to breathe on her own.
The officers transported her aboard Marine Boat Juliet to Timber Point Marina, where Islip Exchange personnel met them and transported her to South Shore University Hospital in Bay Shore, where she was listed in stable condition.
