A boy who called 999 aged two after his mother fell unconscious and twins who rescued a teenage girl from drowning are among those being hailed for their bravery by Scotland’s top police officer.
Hanlon Stevenson was just a toddler when his mother Lisa became unwell in February 2019. The youngster stepped into action and told the emergency services: “Mummy is sleeping and I can’t wake her.”
The boy’s quick-thinking meant paramedics could get to their Stirling house to treat her. Hanlon, now six, was thanked by Sir Iain Livingstone at the Chief Constable of Scotland’s Bravery and Excellence Awards on Friday.
