Alert Firefighter Helps Save the Life Of 85 Year Old Woman

An alert firefighter from the Cape Cod town of Dennis is being credited with saving the life of an 85-year-old woman who had fallen in the snow last night.

Firefighter Geoffrey Mulholland was on the second floor of the Dennis fire headquarters around 9 p.m. when he heard a faint cry for help.  He gathered other firefighters to listen, they yelled out, and they heard the weak voice again.

They rushed next door to find 85-year-old Mary Aiken lying in the snow with her clothes frozen to the ground.  Her vital signs indicated she was in a life-threatening situation from hypothermia.

Aiken was rushed to Cape Cod Hospital and is expected to make a full recovery. (Metro Network Inc.)
