YOUNGSTOWN — A handicapped Campbell man was pulled from his car on Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard when the engine compartment on the passenger side caught on fire, the fire department said. No injuries were reported. Two men who had been across the street at the Teamsters Hall Tuesday evening had the man out of his 1993 Chevrolet Lumina before firefighters arrived just past 7 p.m. Damage to the vehicle was set at $1,500. The cause of the fire is listed as undetermined.

I'm always delighted and amazed to hear of ordinary citizens risking their safety to help a stranger.

:woohoo:
