After making several unsuccessful calls for ambulances, Sawyer said he made the decision to drive the ambulance to save the child – violating the rule that only people age 21 or older can drive the emergency vehicle.
The Ellenville board of directors suspended Sawyer and revoked his title as an advisor from the Youth Squad. He subsequently resigned.

"The captain and board member of the Ellenville First Aid & Rescue told the paper, “It seems very black and white, and it’s not very black and white. This is the type of story that the public doesn’t need to be told. There’s no value to this story other than shock value and gossip.”
What a pathetic statement. The value to the story, is that sometimes rules need to be re-evaluated. The slim vote of 4-3 goes to show that.
I commend Mr. Sawyer for following his conscience.
What a bunch of jerks. Maybe the new year will present them with such a dilemma and let's see if they would do the moral thing. These people are not true Americans by a long shot. They must work for the Obama administration as this is clearly how democrats would react to a moral decision.
The young man will get a better job out of this event. Good job, young man, and carry on!
