She Stepped Outside for One Last Hug. She Was Stabbed 32 Times.

Emergency responders arrived quickly.

Among them was firefighter-paramedic Cameron Hill.

Cameron was simply doing his job that night. He had no idea that the injured young woman he was helping would eventually become someone incredibly important to him.

He and the other first responders worked desperately to stabilize Melissa.

She was then rushed toward a waiting medical helicopter and taken to the hospital.
