on the police radio recording

http://heavy.com/news/2015/04/michael-slager-police-dispatch-radio-911-audio-recording-walter-scott-shooting-murder-south-carolina-scanner/

at 16:55 an officer radios the list of Scott's gunshot injuries for EMR and calls his status "unresponsive"
unresponsive = unconscious but still breathing and still has a pulse, so no CPR needed to this point

at 17:30-34 the same officer says employing(?) chest compression, which is CPR. the first word is hard to hear but "chest compression" can be clearly heard.
