Simone Kelly, an off-duty EMT from New Jersey, and Peter Shrieve-Don are among a small group being hailed as heroes for their quick thinking and administering Narcan to rescue the distressed man, who was perched above the World Trade Center subway station on Thursday.
Shrieve-Don had been filming the Knicks’ historic championship parade when he spotted the unidentified man lose consciousness and raced to alert a nearby NYPD officer, according to video obtained by Storyful.
