Video shows delivery driver rescuing child following crash on South Carolina highway
Last month, a delivery driver rescued a child following a car crash in South Carolina. FedEX delivery driver Damien Rose was on his way back to the office after his shift when saw smoke from a distance according to WCSC.
“So as soon as I got there, I put my vehicle in park and just ran straight to the car,” Rose said. The delivery truck was able to captured footage as Rose pulled over and went straight to the scene.
He rushed to one of the cars, Rose remembers hearing yelling, screaming and a child who appeared to be hurt. The child was bleeding he told news reporters. Footage showed Rose pulling the young child to safety as he walked away with the child in his arms. After getting the child out of harm’s way, Rose wanted to help other passengers, but due to the damaged doors, he decided to wait for the family for paramedics to arrive.
“Her husband said that she was stuck, but I couldn’t get her out,” said Rose, according to Local 12. “I went to the other side to try to get her out again, and pull the door, but it still didn’t work.”
The family talked about their gratitude for Rose’s heroic actions and instincts.
“My grandma got in an accident before, and somebody was there to save her,” Rose said, according to the news station.
According to Rose, he’s the one who feels grateful.
“Hopefully, blessings come back,” Rose said. “It always comes back. I never trip about things like that.”
“If you’re in public, and you see anything, even if it’s not an accident, just anything in danger, you should actually tend to be safe for yourself, be cautious and everything, but you should react and tend to it,” Rose said.
