DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Video footage from the dash camera of an Iowa State Patrol car shows a trooper administering CPR to a man in the middle of Interstate 35.
The video obtained by Des Moines television station KCCI shows Trooper Tracy Bohlen following a swerving truck and approaching the vehicle with a hand on his gun when the vehicle stopped in the middle of the road at the eastern interchange of interstates 35, 80 and 235 in Des Moines.
The footage then shows Bohlen beginning to deliver chest compressions to the driver, Patrick Roark, in the middle of the road before he could be transported to Mercy Medical Center.
Roark tells KCCI he is still awaiting test results, but that doctors described what happened as a heart episode.
