TL;DR Summary

A 7-year-old student at Seagoville North Elementary School in Dallas, Texas, is calling his school bus driver a hero after she saved his life when he began choking on a coin. Raquel Radford Baker, a veteran driver for Dallas Independent School District, quickly performed the Heimlich maneuver and successfully dislodged the quarter from the boy's throat. The student and his mother reunited with the bus driver to express their gratitude, and the boy promised not to play with quarters again. Radford Baker, who has been working for the school district for 17 years, encourages fellow drivers to learn CPR and first aid skills.
