Deerfield Beach Cardiac Arrest: What We Know So Far

A cardiac arrest was reported late Sunday night at a Deerfield Beach condo, and this is what we know so far.

No additional public details were available in web coverage at the time of publication, and officials had not released information on the patient's condition, the circumstances of the emergency, or whether anyone was taken to a hospital.

Emergency response records show R4, E4 and DN/EMS17 were sent to 810 SE 7th St. #207A, indicating a response that included fire rescue and EMS resources. In dispatch terms, that kind of response typically means crews were sent quickly because cardiac arrest is treated as a life-threatening medical emergency.

Dispatch records show this was not the first cardiac-arrest call in Deerfield in recent months. There have been nine similar incidents in the past six months, though those calls may have involved different locations and are not necessarily related.

No investigation details have been released publicly, and it is not yet clear whether police, fire rescue or another agency will issue a follow-up update. In active medical emergencies, official information often comes later from fire rescue, hospital sources or police reports after crews clear the scene.

Day.News will continue to update this story as officials release more information.
