Jamal Rutledge was arrested on probation violation and other felony charges back in September. When he was waiting to be booked and for Officer Franklin Foulks to finish his paperwork officer Foulks went down. Once Jamal saw the officer on the ground after his heart attack he got up and started yelling for help and making noise to get the attention of the other officers. After the officer got in the room they started CPR and called an EMT.

Facts in this story
    .          He had a heart attack
2        .       Jamal was a regular
3        .       It was in Fort Lauderdale, Florida

One important point in this story is the Jamal is a regular there and he knew the officer. Like if he was like the first time he might have not cared of even felt like he should have helped. The second one is that it is in Florida and Florida is the arm pit of America.


This article has no bias in this story it is a feel good story that even though there in the hammer they can still be good people. My thoughts on this is that it’s good that someone was there for that officer and did something about it.
