Heroic granddaughter

Monday, December 12, 2016
LAUREL SPRINGS, N.J. (WPVI) -- A 14 year old received a standing ovation Monday night as she was honored by Gloucester township's mayor for saving her grandfather's life.

In May, Skylar Ruff's grandfather was choking on a piece of food and Skylar was able to perform chest compressions after the Heimlich maneuver didn't work.

By the time EMS arrived her grandfather was conscious and sitting at the kitchen table.
