Police, who were initially called to for a noise complaint in Rego Park, sprang into action to save the complainant from a heart attack.
Cops responded to Felix Royzman’s complaint about a neighbor’s dog at about 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, when Royzman started to have chest pains and collapsed to the ground in cardiac arrest.
Officers responding to the complaint started chest compression on Royzman, and called for EMS.
EMS transported the man to North Shore Long Island Jewish Forest Hills Hospital, where is in stable condition.
The man was lodging a complaint about his upstairs neighbor’s dog, according to reports, which allegedly makes loud noises as the pet walks through the house.
