Gregory Ramos, 18, of Downey was discovered unconscious in a jail cell at the Arcadia City Jail. A routine jail check revealed that Ramos had used his jail linen to fashion a noose in an attempt to strangle himself.
A cooperative effort between the Arcadia Red Cross, Post Office and Police Department has resulted in an innovative program for special need individuals called, "Hey, Mr. Postman, check on me."
