Good Samaritans Saved a Man Trapped by a Burning SUV

It doesn't take much to help your fellow man - er, person? It's a figure of speech, so we'll stick with man.

A few good Samaritans in Westtown Township, Pa. might've just saved a man's life.

The driver of an SUV apparently crashed in a few cars in the Saints Simon and Jude School parking lot on March 14. The SUV caught fire and flipped on its side, trapping the man underneath the vehicle. Just as police arrived on the scene, the police vehicle's dashcam caught some good Samaritans trying to help the man by flipping the car back upright.

Here's the dashcam footage, released on Monday:

"Without their assistance, the incident could have ended in a tragic manner,” officers said, according to CBS - Pittsburgh.

According to ABC - Philadelphia, Westtown-East Goshen Regional Police Department said that the school's staff used fire extinguishers to keep the fire from spreading until the man could be helped from underneath the SUV.

The national media don't care about good Samaritans. They take a look at the count of how many people were hurt in an incident and then they decide to report on it. The media is about ratings. Maybe there should be a network that only reports the facts about major stories and good news only, because the media we currently are saddled with gives us nothing but lies and gloom and doom.
