Head harm

City Carrier Assistant Dante Linyear was recently delivering mail in Olean, NY, when he saw a man fall outside his home and strike his head.

Linyear rushed to the customer’s aid and found that he was foaming at the mouth and unable to speak.

The Postal Service employee alerted a neighbor, who called 911, and comforted the man until paramedics arrived.

The injured customer recovered from the incident.
