As if nothing had happened, the man hops to his feet after cops say he was given Narcan. The prescription drug, which can be administered as a nasal spray, saves overdosing drug users by counteracting the effects of opiates.
The police department said they posted the footage to show how heroin is affecting communities in Pennsylvania and across America.
Upper Darby Police Superintendent Michael Chitwood told INSIDE EDITION there's no doubt Narcan is saving lives. In the last 14 months, he said his department has used the drug about 68 times, 50 of which saved a life.
The drug is stored in a plastic bag the department has attached to every set of car keys used by Upper Darby officers.
