His lifesaving effort won Citizen of the Month recognition for Michael Hrtica (center) of Kendall who helped an aged individual survive from a potential drowning incident.
Spotting the older man in distress from a second story window, Hrtica hurried to help keep him stay above water in a Jacuzzi until the arrival of police and fire-rescue units who concluded Hrtica’s efforts contributed to saving the man’s life.
Presenting the citation to Hrtica during a Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) meeting on Aug. 27 were Miami-Dade Police Kendall District’s Maj. Christopher Carothers (left) and CAC chair Barry White.
