Two paramedics suspended after grandmother alleges they falsely pronounced teen's death

Two Houston paramedics have been suspended for seven days following an investigation involving resuscitation of a teenage boy that failed to meet "standards and expectations," authorities confirmed to Fox News.

The boy’s lips were turning white and when Williams pressed on his nails, the color wasn’t returning, she told Fox News. She wasn’t alarmed because the child’s body temperature and heart rate typically run low.  In an emailed statement to Fox News, Houston Fire Chief Samuel Peña said: "The vast majority of our employees serve our community with care, honor and distinction. I do not believe the high standards and expectations we have for our employees and their work were met in this particular case, and when that occurs, we will hold ourselves accountable. At the conclusion of the investigation I found cause to sustain on rule violations, which resulted in a 7-day suspension without pay."
