US Cops Rescue Man From Burning SUV in Dramatic Video
In a dramatic incident in Coweta County, Georgia, two policemen rescued a driver from a burning car just moments before it burst into flames. The entire rescue operation, which took place on February 1, was captured on video and shared on Facebook by Newnan Coweta Scanner Traffic.
According to Fox 5 Atlanta, Sergeant Mills received a report about an SUV that had veered off the road and crashed into a tree. When he and his colleague arrived at the scene, they found the driver trapped in the driver’s seat. Acting swiftly, Mr. Mills shattered the vehicle’s windows while his colleague used a knife to cut the seatbelt off. The driver struggled to free himself as the flames approached.
Remarkably, the duo managed to extract the motorist from the vehicle in less than ninety seconds. The entire rescue was recorded on the officer’s body camera.
Preliminary details provided by the GSP revealed that the driver of a Ford Edge failed to navigate a left curve and continued straight, causing the vehicle to leave the road and collide with mailboxes, trash cans, and eventually a large tree. The car came to a stop on the side of the road after hitting the tree.
The video posted on Facebook shows the front of the vehicle engulfed in flames as the deputies arrived at the scene. Without hesitation, they rushed to the burning car, breaking windows and cutting the seatbelt to free the trapped driver. Moments later, the back of the vehicle burst into flames.
The driver was immediately taken to the hospital with second and first-degree burns. The heroic actions of the police officers have been widely praised, with the post on Facebook hailing them as heroes who selflessly risked their lives to save a stranger.
