Gabe Gutierrez stepped up in the same way at Bender Park in June."Deep down morally, I knew I had to do my best to help, Gabe Gutierrez said. Gutierrez and Hunter Logan jumped into Lake Michigan to save two swimmers on a night the waves were dangerous."I'm grateful that I finished a CPR course literally a month before I needed to use it, Gutierrez said.He encourages everyone to learn the lifesaving skill.Another person honored for lifesaving actions was Milwaukee County Jail Captain Michael Hannah. Captain Hannah performed lifesaving measures on an inmate who was unconscious and taught newer officers how to react in the scary situation.Meanwhile, Corrections Sergeant Randall Wilborn was presented with the Purple Heart Award after he was brutally stabbed six times by a former inmate."It's a situation that I don't think anybody would want to go through. But I got through it. So, I fought through it because I'm a fighter, Sergeant Wilborn said.Its about time to watch on your time.
