A poignant story from a man who was saved by EMT Yadira Arroyo, the mother of five who was run over and killed when a man stole her ambulance.

 “Call 911!” Dennis Wales remembers shouting to his daughter Shannon one day in July 2007 after he collapsed in his bed with a stabbing pain mounting in his chest. It would be tragic EMT hero Yadira Arroyo who would rush to his Bronx home and saved his life.

And on Saturday, it was he who went to her side — for her wake and funeral.
