The Weyburn Police Service is honoured to recognize Brendan Gall with a Certificate of Appreciation for his quick response during an incident on May 5 at a local restaurant that helped save a life.

Chief Jamie Blunden presented Gall the certificate last week at the Wor-Kin Shop, where he is a valued employee. The WPS sincerely thanked Gall for his brave and knowledgeable actions during the emergency that merits this award.

“Mr. Gall recognized an individual that had overdosed in the washroom and was unconscious so he alerted the staff to call 911,” said Chief Blunden. “As a result members attended and were able to administer aid, otherwise it may have been longer responding and the male victim may not have been so lucky.”

He added that Weyburn is proud to have community members like Gall who exemplify genuine concern and take impressive and safe action during emergency situations.
