BECKLEY â A Raleigh County Sheriff s Office deputy was recognized recently for saving the life of a toddler who may have accidentally ingested narcotics.
Deputy Haegan Harvey, a 2018 graduate of Independence High School, said he was looking at dispatch logs from the Raleigh Emergency Operations Center around 4 a.m. Tuesday. On his computer, he saw a pending call at a nearby apartment complex for a two-year-old boy who was unresponsive and gasping.
The call had not yet been dispatched to Emergency Medical Services crews. Harvey said he was patrolling not far from Beckley Appalachian Regional Hospital and the apartment complex was not far from BARH.
