Retired Maryland State Trooper First Class John Heckner

On September 7, 2021, Retired Maryland State Trooper First Class John Heckner, along with his family, met with members of the Harford County Sheriff’s Office, Harford County Department of Emergency Services, and Bel Air Volunteer Fire Company, to share their sincere thanks and appreciation for the job they collectively did to save Mr. Heckner’s life, in July.

Mr. Heckner and his family wanted to recognize all the individuals that were instrumental in attaining ROSC (Return of Spontaneous Circulation) during a medical emergency. The participation and rapid response of the deputies and EMS providers were influential in providing lifesaving care to this individual in our community and undeniably can be attributed to a “save” in this patient.
