What began as a joyful day quickly turned into an emergency.
On May 16, 2026, a family gathered in the West Atrium of the Cobb County Court Complex to celebrate a wedding. Moments before the ceremony, a young girl began choking.
Recognizing the signs of distress, Deputy Walk immediately sprang into action. Using his training and quick thinking, he was able to dislodge the obstruction and help the child begin breathing again.
Because of his swift response, a family was able to continue celebrating what should have been one of the happiest days of their lives.
Please join us in recognizing Deputy Walk for his professionalism, courage, and commitment to serving others when they need it most.
