Bystander photo of teens pulling couple and baby from car (SWNS)

From the south of England comes the eyewitness account of a road rescue by a hoard of good, young, Samaritans.

A photograph taken by a bystander shows one of the rescuers on top of the vehicle after it crashed, as well as a man and his 11-month-old son, who had been dragged from the wreckage by those who rushed to help.

The baby’s mother, still trapped inside at the time, was soon helped out through a passenger-side window.

Robert Winstanley took the picture as he was walking to a supermarket at about 5pm yesterday.

“Just as I was coming to the Esso garage, I saw all of these youngsters, about 100 yards away, rush into the road.”

“As I got closer, I could see a car had flipped onto its side, and some of them were standing on the roof trying to reach those trapped inside.”

TEENS TO THE RESCUE: 

Mr. Winstanley says the group of teens pulled the father and baby from the car before rescuing the mother.

“I spoke to her while they were waiting for an ambulance to arrive,” he remembered. “She was understandably in shock and crying, but they were all unhurt.”

“It was really heartening to see, especially given what is often said about young people,” Winstanley said. “After everyone was out of the vehicle, they were all shaking each other’s hands and high-fiving each other.”
