The Green River City Council will meet Tuesday, September 6, at 7 pm at Green River City Hall.

On June 29, 2022 GRPD officers were called to 409 E. Flaming Gorge Way for a male subject who was unresponsive on the floor. Officer Delisser arrived at the scene to find the male subject unresponsive and drooling.

Officer Delisser evaluated the man and found unknown pills in the man’s mouth. Prescription bottles for narcotic drugs were found nearby. Based on his training, Officer Delisser recognized the signs of a likely overdose and administered Narcan to the man who then started to become coherent and more responsive.

The man would have likely died without the medical intervention provided by Officer Delisser.

The Green River Police Department, along with the City Council and other city employees, will recognize Officer Delisser with an Emergency Medical Service Award to commend his quick actions that saved a resident’s life.
