Yesterday, Russ Tombs, a Walmart employee in Leamington, ON, was surprised with a Canadian Red Cross Rescuer Award for saving a woman's life while at work. Last month, while collecting shopping carts in the store's parking lot, Tombs noticed a woman in distress and quickly went over to assist her. Realizing she was choking, he used his first aid training to perform abdominal thrusts on her and successfully dislodged a piece of food stuck in her throat.
