Volunteers from an Edinburgh charity have potentially saved a man’s life in the city centre after administering CPR and a defibrillator before the Scottish Ambulance Service arrived.
Street Assist, who are a charity organisation that looks to ensure the safety, dignity and health of night time economy users in the capital, had a busy evening on Friday, August 12 and into the wee hours of Saturday, August 13.
The incident is understood to have taken place on Blair Street at around 1am. Volunteers arrived at the scene to find a man initially conscious but 'rather intoxicated'.
