A bus driver who saved the life of one of his passengers after he collapsed has been reunited with the man he saved.
William Bell was driving the 57 bus in Glasgow when he was informed that John McCann had fallen ill. As soon as he saw the 62-year-old, his instincts kicked in and the former lifeguard gave life-saving chest compressions for the next 35 minutes, with the help of a fellow passenger who called 999.
Mr Bell, a bus driver for 11 years, said: “It was a surreal situation, but I did what was needed. With the help of the passenger with the phone, and the call handler, it was a real team effort and we helped to save John’s life.”
