Rosie sends us a link to the story of Air Force Staff Sergeant Rodney Dowell from Eglin Air Force Base, Florida who happened upon an accident on his way to work on Monday morning;
[H]e found a flipped over Jeep Compass with a male driver and three female passengers piled in screaming for help.
“I pulled over, got out and started running over,” he said. “I saw the passengers in the back bunched on top of each other.”
Dowell was able to pull both passengers in the back, safely out of the vehicle. He handed one of them his phone to call 911 while he went to the front of the car.
They were both in shock, he said.
“In the front, the passenger was unconscious and the flames were picking up, but I couldn’t get her and the driver out,” Dowell said.
“I just wanted to save these people.”
He flagged down two other vehicles from the road. The drivers helped pull the front passenger and driver out of the Jeep.
