A couple of municipal surveillance cameras caughtfootage of the off-duty barber and a local police officer named Derek Stebbins as they rushed up to the wrecked car – which was smoking – and opened the doors.

“Come here – drag him! Drag him!” Stebbins’s body-worn camera recorded him frantically telling Mouser after the pair freed the driver from his seat and placed him on the ground.
