Officer Franklin Foulks was in the process of booking 17-year-old Jamal Rutledge, when the cop collapsed

A Fort Lauderdale, Florida teenager who was processed into the Ft. Lauderdale Police Department Booking Facility, is set to be commended later this month for heroically helping to save the life of an officer who collapsed while booking him, an incident that was captured on surveillance camera.

The ABC News video shows, Rutledge immediately began to kick the security fence and yell to alert officers in the area.


Sgt. Todd Bunin overheard the commotion, and with the assistance of Officers Robert Norvis and Raymond Ketchmark, he aided Foulks with CPR and a defibrillator before emergency medical services got to the scene. Det. DeAnna Greenlaw told ABC News that Foulks is now on light duty, but expected to return to full duty by the end of the month.
