In the Mississippi city of Southaven, two Waste Pro employees, Calvin Williams and Tony Henry, have been heralded as heroes after a life-saving intervention. While carrying out their duties on a routine waste collection route, they discovered resident Bob Miller bleeding profusely from his head in his driveway, having suffered a fall. According to Action News 5, the pair immediately called 911 and employed quick first-aid measures to manage the bleeding until the arrival of emergency medical services.
As reported by FOX13 Memphis, the incident occurred when Miller was taking out the trash before Williams and Henry, seeing him on the ground, acted to provide critical assistance.
