This man did something truly heroic! John Vescio saved another man’s life from a terrifying car accident!
John was pumping gas at a Mobil station in Hutchinson Parkway, New York, when a 69-year-old man lost control of his car and crashed into the gas station right next to John!
The driver had slipped into diabetic shock and lost consciousness. His car slammed into the vehicle and gas pump right next to John and caught fire!
The gas pump nearly fell on top of John and his first instinct was to run out of harm’s way.
But then, his 20 plus years of experience as a New York State Trooper kicked in.
John ran back to the burning vehicles to help the unconscious man.
“I got the door open but I could see the actual compartment was compressed,” Vescio told NBC New York. “His legs were tucked under the seat and his seatbelt was on, he was pretty much helpless.”
John dragged the man from the burning car and then ran back to his own car to retrieve his a first aid kit just before the two vehicles exploded into flames!
Thank goodness John was there to rescue the driver!
Here’s raw video footage of John in action.
