Flagstaff FBI Agent Helps Saves A Woman’s Life While Traveling To Page

A FBI agent based in Flagstaff was a life-saver last week while traveling to Page. Officials say Special Agent John Garcia was heading toward Page on Copper Mine Road last Tuesday when he came upon a single-vehicle accident. The vehicle was teetering upside down on its front end, with a bystander running toward it. The person told Garcia a woman was trapped underneath the vehicle with a broken leg. He grabbed his first aid gear and went back to the vehicle. One person was already lifting the vehicle, with another person and Garcia further stabilizing it. Garcia noticed the woman had two broken legs, one of which was severely injured. She told Garcia she felt like she was going to pass out. He placed a tourniquet on her leg and continue to stabilize the vehicle until help arrived. EMS and Navajo Police arrived on the scene and transported her to a nearby hospital. Garcia went on to Page to join other agents to serve a search warrant in connection with a man who threatened to burn down the Page Magistrate courthouse. The woman was treated and has since been released.
