Postal Employee Heralded For Saving Man's Life

SEYMOUR, CT — A letter carrier is being lauded after he jumped into action when a public works employee hit the ground, according to WTNH News 8. Edward Bomba was helping direct traffic while a crew fixed Walnut Street in Seymour when his heart shut down and he fell into convulsions.

USPS postal worker Robert Dillon saw this happen and started on chest compressions until emergency crews arrived. Bomba was on a ventilator for three days.

After he got out of the hospital, he called Dillon to thank him for being there, WTNH reported.
