The detective called us today and said the gentleman didnt make it. He died at the hospital and that he had a triple bypass about 1 1/2 years earlier. The office said that the family knew he was on borrowed time because he did not take care of himself after the surgery.
The good samartian law will cover bystanders usually that try to help out within the limit of the abilities. My girlfriend is trained in CPR (because she works in pre-surgical at a hospital) and I was certified in CPR as a paramedic. I think this would apply more to the nurse who actually showed up than us, but the officer said the woman was just thankful someone stopped. This road is not a well lit road and not traveled all that much. The guy could have just laid there for an hour or so if someone wasn't behind him.
Sorry to bore you guys with it, just not something that happens everyday.
