A 20-year-old Milanese hotel school
student saved the life of a neighbour's three-old grandson with
the Heimlich maneuver on Thursday, Corriere della Sera said
Friday.
Simone Mantovani was doing distance learning when his neighbour
knocked on his door and showed him her three-year-old grandson
who was not breathing.
He promptly performed the abdominal thrusts that dislodged a
piece of food and saved the toddler's life.
Lombardy Governor Attilio Fontana praised the student online,
positing a link to the story and saying "the rescue team arrived
as soon as it could but Simone's intervention was decisive. Well
done Simone!"
