Woman's Life Saved Following Bills Practice at Highmark Stadium; Was Found Without a Pulse

A woman received emergency medical care after being found unresponsive during the Buffalo Bills Blue and Red practice event at Highmark Stadium on Friday, according to the Erie County Sheriff's Department.

The 70-year-old woman was discovered at approximately 7:40pm near Section 101, slumped over on a railing along the walkway.

Reserve Deputies John Klingesmith and Greg Daniel were among the first to notice her condition and responded immediately.

After moving the woman to the top of the walkway, deputies and other responders administered CPR until they were able to detect a pulse.

Once on-site medical personnel and EMTs determined the woman was stable enough to be moved, she was transported out of the stadium through Gate 2.

Patrol deputies then escorted her to Mercy Hospital in Buffalo.

This incident marks the second time in the past eight months that lifesaving measures were performed on a fan at Highmark Stadium.

On December 22nd, 2024, a 61-year-old man also received emergency care after being found unresponsive.
