At Tuesday night’s City Council meeting, we had the opportunity to recognize Leo Lyons with a Life Saving Medal for his actions during a violent incident in our community earlier this year.
Leo was working as a package delivery driver when he came upon an assault in progress at a residence. He saw that a woman had been seriously injured and that the suspect was armed with a hammer. Leo stepped in, confronted the suspect, secured the weapon, called 911, and remained on scene until public safety personnel arrived.
His willingness to get involved helped stop the assault and likely prevented even more serious injuries.
We’re incredibly grateful Leo was there that day and proud to recognize his courage, compassion, and willingness to help someone in need.
Congratulations, Leo!
