A Life Saved

Larry Lenning Saves a Life at the Tucson Racquet Club

Tucson, AZ, WPH Press, 4/28/24

After seeing a racquetball player suffer a major heart attack outside the court at the Tucson Racquet Club earlier this week, Larry Lenning sprung into action, performing chest compression CPR to restore breathing, giving way to the TRC’s staff and eventually the paramedics. Lenning does not want any credit ….but he saved a life.

According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention HERE, more than 356,000 people suffer from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest each year, with 60-80% of them dying before reaching the hospital. By knowing CPR, you could save a life.
