For the sixth time since Seattle police started carrying Naloxone in March, officers prevented a potentially fatal overdose on Thursday.

According to SPD, officers Kevin Oshikawa-Clay and Carry Godeke were patrolling Belltown around 1:30 p.m. when they arrived at a parking lot under the Alaskan Way Viaduct to find a witness performing CPR on a woman overdosing on the ground.

Police say the woman, believed to be about 25 years old, was having trouble breathing and had turned pale. She had fresh injection marks on her arm.

The woman’s breathing stabilized a few minutes after officer Oshikawa-Clay, a certified Emergency Medical Technician, administered a dose of Naloxone nasal spray. She was able to walk to an aid car under her own power, and then she was taken to Harborview Medical Center.
