When Maryland youth soccer coach Walter Kelly went into cardiac arrest on the field recently, it very likely could have been deadly. That is -- if it wasn't for two off-duty Prince George's County firefighters, who helped save his life.
The three -- along with Kelly's wife Kyra -- were reunited recently at Kelly's home in Hanover, Maryland in far more joyous scene than the last time they all came together.
In April, Kelly was just finishing a scrimmage with his son's youth soccer team, the Leeds United, when he suddenly collapsed on the field in Gambrills, Maryland.
He was in cardiac arrest -- three of his arteries considered "excessively blocked."
On a nearby field -- lacrosse coaches Chris Winn and Jason Parker were wrapping up practice with their team, the Sidewinders Lacrosse Club, when they heard the commotion.
