I have to assume there was but where is anybody's guess. Then you have to ask if there is anyone around that knows how to use it. You don't just open the box and start reading the instructions while the person is dying on the ground.

I'd rather have CPR performed on me than a kiosk worker or janitor zapping me with electricity......LOL!

The defib got rejected by TSA security so it’s stored on the unsecure side. They would have had to move the lifeless body back past security to save him!

Chances are Roe isn’t current with his CPR/AED training, he was just responding as a medical doctor, using his previously obtained training.

The current training requires - prior to even touching the victim - the responder to tell one person to call 911 and another retrieve the nearest AED.
