ISP Troopers save two motorists lives in separate drug overdose incidents

Illinois State Police (ISP) Troopers are being credited with saving the lives of two motorists from drug overdose incidents on Jan. 18, 2018, in Winnebago and Madison Counties.

At 9:30 a.m., an ISP Trooper responded to a motorist assist on the ramp from I-270 Eastbound to I-255 Southbound in Madison County. The Trooper arrived and found an unresponsive male with decreased respirations in the driver’s seat. The Trooper administered two doses of NARCAN before the victim became responsive. The driver and passenger who also appeared to be under the influence of Illegal drugs were transported to a local area hospital for treatment.
