    HONORING THE LIFE SAVING ACTIONS OF NOBLESVILLE POLICE OFFICERS

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. VICTORIA SPARTZ

                               of indiana

                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, March 10, 2021

  Mrs. SPARTZ. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor heroic actions 
taken by two police offices in my district, Officer Tiffany Bledsoe and 
Officer David Lindenschmidt of the Noblesville Police Department. Both 
Officers Bledsoe and Lindenschmidt were able to save lives in the early 
morning hours of February 27, 2021.
  Officer Bledsoe was dispatched to a hotel with reports of an 
overdose. As the first officer on scene, Officer Bledsoe began chest 
compressions and rescue breaths before administering Narcan to the 
patient who then regained consciousness and began breathing again. 
About 20 hours later, a similar call came in, prompting Officer 
Lindenschmidt to respond to a report of an overdose. Officer 
Lindenschmidt also administered Narcan to the patient playing a vital 
role in avoiding an opioid overdose death.
  The quick actions of Officers Bledsoe and Lindenschmidt saved lives 
that day. These two officers are examples of how our policemen and 
women serve and protect us every day. I am honored to commend their 
actions.
