Pretty sure this article in a local paper is about this lucky man. All the details and places fit (those in my original post were made up in order to preserve confidentiality, but now he’s in the papers confidentiality seems a bit pointless) . I thought the policeman in question was actually on duty at the time, but maybe I was mistaken — I wasn’t taking the call, just watching it come in on the dispatch desk.

Must be pretty cool to see how things turned out in the end.

The call was in Erith… the hospital they took him to was in Dartford. We do cover a small part of Dartford, but the rest of it comes under Kent.
