ahead, you ll meet a firefighter paramedic who is just a remarkable guy. he saved the life of a 7-year-old girl who is badly injured. could have easily died in the wake of the bombing. matt patterson is his name. he only recently got his p paramedic certification. he was in the right place at a bad time and knew exactly what to do. i get up, i run back to the sidewalk. there happens to be a gentleman standing there. just couldn t tell you who he was, spectator. i need your belt, i need your belt. without hesitation, this man ripped off his belt, gave it to me, took the belt, ran back over, applied a tourniquet.
