Hector Almodovar, a retired NYPD officer now working school security, saved a fifth grader after she started choking at lunch. AielloTV reports.

CBS2's Tony Aiello spoke with the fifth grader and her new hero."I wouldn't say I panicked. I'd say I was more like a calm in that situation," Ariana said.

"I thought I could take it out myself, but it turns out you can't when something's big. So you need help," she said. Almodovar rushed Ariana to the school nurse, who called her parents. There was relief all around that she was OK thanks the Almodovar's quick thinking.
