Citizen, Police and Fire Crews Provide CPR After Person Falls From Tree in North Everett

Just got the following in from Everett Fire Marshal Rick Robinson…

Everett Fire Department crews responded at 8:53 p.m. to an emergency call for CPR in progress on a young male. Arriving crews were told that the young man had contacted an electrical line while climbing a tree. Following the apparent electrical shock, he fell about 20 feet onto the street where a citizen began CPR and called 911. CPR was then conducted by an Everett Police Department officer until fire department crews arrived. Crews were able to re-establish a pulse and the patient began breathing on his own. He was transported by Medic unit to Harborview Medical Center for further evaluation.

This happened in the 1600 block of Chestnut Avenue in North Everett.
