A Canyon View High School junior has been recognized for her prompt rescue efforts that helped save the life of a school bus driver.
Lindsay Abbott, 16, received a set of EMS challenge coins at an awards ceremony held at Southwest Technical College in Cedar City on Monday evening. Also receiving the special coins were Enoch police officer Devin Kwiatkowski and Iron County sheriff's deputy Mary Menke. All three were commended for their actions in responding to an incident that happened near Enoch Elementary School around noon on March 30.
As previously reported, the bus driver had just left the school on her regular route to take home a group of morning kindergartners when she experienced a medical event that caused her to lose consciousness. Abbott was driving in her car right behind the bus as it went off the road and crashed into a fence. Abbott and her freshman brother were on their way back to Canyon View High School after having gone home for lunch.
