BRAINTREE – Police Chief Russell Jenkins said Friday that the quick actions of a Braintree officer “more than likely” saved the life of a young Iraq War veteran who was found unconscious after a possible drug overdose.

Jenkins said officer Brian Eng was sent to a Braintree home on Feb. 4 for a report of a possible drug overdose and had to force his way in after nobody came to the door. The caller who reported the overdose directed Eng to an attic bedroom, where the officer found a 21-year-old man who was not breathing and did not appear to have a pulse.
