Cape Elizabeth Police Officer Rory Benjamin and his partner Aaron Webster are receiving praise from the South Portland Fire Department for their quick thinking, which one paramedic said stopped a South Portland man from bleeding to death last month.
Benjamin said he has responded to his share of life-or-death medical calls, but he had never used a tourniquet to save a man’s life before Feb. 25.
