When a video of the incident was posted online, people immediately began to posit a fight had broken out on the road.

Miraculously, the baby was alive, though she was drenched in motor oil and sustained a fractured skull and third-degree burns.

The pole punched through the SUV's window, went right past Poff, hit the back seat and embedded itself in the car's roof.

The man was clearly concerned for the driver, doing his best to assist and urgently asking Dolci to break the glass so they could move her.

Had it not been for that extra bit of time they waited, they might have passed before the accident took place and been unable to help.

First responders praised Reynolds and the other two men for their actions, as they likely saved the woman's life.

Strawn had suffered broken ribs, broken wrists, broken vertebrae, a broken nose and a broken pelvis in addition to multiple facial wounds.

The children who died included foster children, children placed by families and children whose parents were chaperones on a trip.

A coworker joined him and together the two of them worked to bend the doorframe, lift the steering wheel and free the female driver.

The two policemen have since been recognized for their heroics, and the day after the incident each received a special award.
