Deputies with the Fresno County Sheriff's Air Support Unit were recognized in New Orleans for an act of heroism nearly two years ago.
In September of 2019, the crew received a report of an eight-year-old boy drowning in the Kings River.
Aiden Martin's life was saved that day thanks to the deputies' efforts.

Fast-forward nearly two years later and those deputies were surprised by young Aiden, while receiving their award for saving the boy's life.
The sheriff's office says the now 10-year-old is back in school and enjoying his sports activities thanks to their team taking life-saving measures.
