Teenagers help sick driver (UK)

A group of teenagers were today praised after helping a bus driver who collapsed at the side of the road with a suspected heart attack. The six youngsters, aged about 17 to 19, immediately got off the bus to see what they could do for the man - covering him up with a jacket, phoning emergency help and talking to him to reassure him. Other passengers on the vehicle also did what they could to help while they waited for paramedics to arrive. After treatment, the driver - who has not been named - was able to return to the bus to reassure everyone he was all right before being taken to Ipswich Hospital for a check-up - Evening Star
