A woman helped revive a man who overdosed in a downtown San Diego parking garage early Wednesday morning.
Just after 2:45 a.m., authorities received multiple 911 calls regarding a medical emergency in the parking structure under the Ralphs grocery store off Market Street and 2nd Avenue.
A woman in the garage noticed a man she did not know slumped over and turning blue, prompting her to yell out for help. Bystanders called 911 as the woman provided aid to the man. The woman told the 10News Breaking News Tracker she knew the man was overdosing and administered Narcan before paramedics arrived.When asked by the 10News Breaking News Tracker why she carries Narcan, the woman said,"There is so many ‘fetty’ overdoses; you'd be surprised how many overdoses there [are] in one day and it's just getting worse and worse.”Narcan is a medication that can reverse opioid overdoses.
