Jackson asked if she needed help and she said yes, according to the statement, which noted there were “no uniformed EMS providers on the scene at the time.” The statement from Jackson’s office said he was attending the rodeo when he was “summoned by someone in the crowd to assist a 15-year-old girl who was having a medical emergency nearby.” When Jackson responded to the scene, he found a relative, who was a nurse, already helping the girl. Ronny Jackson, R-Amarillo, was “briefly detained” by law enforcement while trying to help with a medical emergency at a rodeo Saturday night outside Amarillo, according to his office.
