Taylor Swift Song Credited in Rescue of Colts Owner Jim Irsay

Responding officer blared 'Cruel Summer' en route to Irsay's home during suspected overdose incident.

  • Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay was saved from a suspected overdose last month by first responders who were alerted by a 911 call.
  • A police officer en route to the emergency was captured on dash cam footage blaring Taylor Swift's song 'Cruel Summer' as he raced to Irsay's residence.
  • The officer's swift response and the adrenaline-boosting music are being credited with helping to save Irsay's life.
  • Irsay was found unresponsive and 'cold to the touch' but responded slightly after the administration of Narcan, a drug used in opiate overdose situations.
  • The Colts have since announced that Irsay is recovering from a 'severe respiratory illness.'
