ARIZONA CITY - The Pinal County Sheriff's Office is praising one of its deputies for helping save two lives in less than an hour.

The office said Wednesday that Deputy Robert Taylor responded to a 911 call in Arizona City on Feb. 3 and performed CPR on an 8-month-old who was not breathing. The baby soon after began to breathe and is expected to make a full recovery.

Forty-five minutes later, Taylor helped save an 83-year-old Eloy man who was trapped in a 15-foot-deep hole in the ground.

The sheriff's office says that Taylor climbed into the hole using a ladder and carried the man out. The man had been suffering from frostbite, was barely conscious and was having trouble breathing.

The man also is expected to make a full recovery.
