BROOKLYN, Ohio -- It was a typical Wednesday evening at the Best Buy in Brooklyn.
That all changed around 5:15 p.m. when a man frantically ran through the front doors, carrying his two-year-old son.
"Out of nowhere I heard screaming and yelling. I came running," explained Ammar Dardari, who works at the store.
Dardari and co-worker Raymond Golak rushed to the aid of the frantic father. They say the little boy was clearly in bad shape.
"He was lying down on the ground, pretty much gasping for air, he couldn't breathe," Golak told Fox 8 News.
Without hesitation, Golak started CPR and Dardari assisted. After about a minute, the two heard a wonderful sound. The two-year-old started coughing, crying and breathing on his own. Moments later the paramedics arrived.
They say the little boy had a seizure due to a high fever and the CPR may have saved his life.
Turns out, Golak learned CPR in high school and Dardari just finished EMS classes at the fire academy, and he wasn't even supposed to work that day. "I actually was covering a shift so I felt it was maybe a sign for me to be here," he said.
They both say now you know you can get way more than just a TV when you come to their Best Buy.
