Bill > HJR1197

This resolution, a formal expression of opinion by the Tennessee House of Representatives and Senate, honors and commends Tactical Medics Justin Krantz and Jason Kile for receiving the Citizen Service Medal from the Chattanooga Police Department (CPD). The resolution highlights their volunteer service with the CPD's SWAT Team, specifically detailing their heroic actions on September 15, 2025, when they provided critical, life-saving medical care to K9 Diesel, a police dog who sustained severe injuries from broken glass during a dangerous operation involving a barricaded suspect. Despite their rapid intervention and the dog's subsequent transport to a veterinary hospital, K9 Diesel ultimately succumbed to his injuries, but the medics' actions allowed him a chance to survive and gave his team the opportunity to say goodbye, demonstrating their bravery and extraordinary support for law enforcement.
