Choking Baby Saved by Off-Duty Cop Who Saw Family in Distress on Highway
August 26, 2021
An off-duty police officer from San Pablo, California, came across a mom in distress on the side of the road, and ended up saving her baby’s life. Officer Gilbert Troche was on the way back from a movie with his wife, when she pointed out a car pulled over and a woman seemingly in distress holding a limp baby. He took the baby and started doing back thrusts, trying to dislodge anything stuck in its windpipe. After a few tense minutes, the baby was once again breathing.
