Englishtown, NJ - Englishtown police used naloxone nasal spray to save a local resident there who had overdosed on suspected heroin last Wednesday, police said.

Just after 6 p.m. on Aug. 24, Englishtown police officers were dispatched to a home in the borough for a request for a cardiopulmonary resuscitation; Patrolman Adam Liotta, Patrolman Michael Makwinski and Special Officer Kevin Romano responded, reported Greater Media Newspapers.



When officers arrived, they found the man had overdosed on suspected heroin. Liotta administered the naloxone by spraying it into his nose, and the man was revived in a matter of minutes.
