Early Saturday morning, David
Ploog, an Indiana state trooper, saved the life of a young man after being
involved in an accident with someone who was driving impaired on a state road.
Latin McKinney was on the side of
the road aiding his sister at the time of the incident, her car stalled in the
middle of the highway and needed someone’s help. It was then that Robert Butler
collided into McKinney causing a serious injury on his leg.
There was profuse bleeding from the
victim’s leg, when trooper Ploog came to the rescue and applied a tourniquet in
order to prevent further bleeding. McKinney was transported to a hospital, and
even though he’s going through multiple operations, he is expected to make a
full recovery.
David Ploog had this to say about
his heroic acts, “I just showed up at the right place with the right equipment.”
