NAPLES, Fla. - When the unthinkable happened at a construction site in Naples, a nearby worker sprung into action.

Thanks to training that has nothing to do with construction, Jonathan Machedo saved a fellow worker's life.

Stephen Beck was critically injured in a construction site accident involving a forklift on Thursday.

Machedo said, "I heard someone screaming, 'Help! My leg!'"

That's when he ran to the rescue.

Beck's leg was broken and bleeding heavily. Machedo, who just graduated last fall from Ft. Myers Public Safety Academy, knew exactly what to do.

"I cut off his shorts with my knife, and I used his belt as a tourniquet until first responders showed up."
According to Tabatha Butcher, the Chief of Collier County EMS, a person can bleed to death pretty quickly if the bleeding isn't stopped.

We called Lee Memorial Hospital, who said Beck is still in critical condition. 

OSHA said they are investigating the incident at the construction site in Naples.
