Man Rescued Two Trapped Under Car

Published: July 4, 2007

A neighbor came to the rescue of two men trapped under a car.

“I heard, ‘Help.’ And that’s all I heard. And I ran. I jumped the fence, because it was locked. And I jumped the fence and tried to do what I could,” says Sergio Perez.

He found two people pinned under a car. The car jack gave out.

Perez says, “I just saw the jack on the floor, so I tried to pick it up with my hands the best I could… One guy in the front, he got out.”

That man got out without any injuries. The second man was later freed and taken to the hospital. Police say he may have some broken bones. He’s now in the hospital in stable condition.

Perez was cut during the rescue, but he dismissed it as no big deal.

“I cut myself with the jack when I was picking it up and everything. And it doesn’t hurt me right now so I don’t mind,” he says.

Perez is being modest. He says he just tried his best.

He tells us, “In the beginning, yeah, I was a little scared. But I tried to do the best I could.”
