Wells described the incident that occurred Feb. 25, 2021, in which Hamilton and Moran responded to a report of a non-responsive person at a residence in Scranton, Kan. Deputies, Osage County EMS, and Scranton first responders were dispatched to the scene, but Hamilton and Moran were the first to arrive. … “The quick response and immediate actions by deputies Hamilton and Moran resulted in this selfless act of saving of a human life,” Wells said as he presented the awards to the deputies. “A failure to act or action after delay could have led to a tragic outcome.”
