After identifying that the fighter was unconscious, the police officer opened the cell and, with the help of other colleagues, began the resuscitation process until War Machine could breathe again. According to the report, 15 minutes after the work began, Koppenhaver's vital signs were completely stabilized.
After the incident, War Machine was transferred to a medical isolation cell, where he is under observation so as not to try to kill himself again. Officers also found a suicide note written by War Machine inside his cell.
