Our Hobart police department doing amazing things!

Recognizing Courage. Celebrating a Life Saved.

At today’s Board of Public Works and Safety meeting, Hobart Police officers were recognized for their lifesaving actions at Robinson Lake on September 11.

Officers responded after a woman fell from a kayak and was struggling to stay above water. Officers Guernsey and Hornickel quickly removed their duty gear and entered the lake without hesitation. When they reached her, she was not breathing.

Officers G. White and Paige Wood used a throw rope and lifesaving ring to help bring the officers and woman toward shore. Corporal Taylor and Officer L. Kwiatkowski helped pull them up the steep bank, while Officer Suroviak managed the scene so lifesaving care could continue.

Officer Paige Wood immediately began CPR and continued chest compressions as the woman was transported in a police SUV to waiting EMS personnel. By the time they reached EMS, she had a pulse and was breathing. She has since recovered and attended today’s meeting to thank the officers.

Officers Hornickel and Guernsey were presented with lifesaving pins in recognition of their courageous actions.

The first two officers arrived within one minute of dispatch, with seven officers on scene within four minutes. This rescue took courage, quick thinking, and teamwork—and every officer played a part in giving this woman another chance at life.

We are proud of you all.
