An off-duty police officer saves the life of an 18-month-old girl: it happened in Portici (Naples) where an inspector of the State Police serving at the Naples police headquarters, who was near the municipal villa with his family, noticed a girl who, following a fall, had lost consciousness.
The officer intervened by performing the so-called “wallet maneuver” to open the girl's mouth preventing her from suffocating; 118 emergency medical services were called to the scene.
The parents went to the hospital by their own means and the officers of the Portici - Ercolano police station acted as relay. The girl is now in good condition.
