A heroic Texas police officer saved a woman from a burning car after a suspected DWI crash on I-30. Bodycam footage shows Mesquite Officer Tyler Ingram sprinting toward the engulfed vehicle after hearing the crash just after midnight on September 30. Flames rapidly spread as the trapped woman screamed in pain. Ingram fought to open the door, asking if her leg was stuck. She replied she was “just in pain” before he forced the door open and pulled her to safety. Her face was bleeding as Ingram and another officer dragged her away seconds before the car exploded in flames. He then applied a tourniquet to her leg. “It felt like a movie,” Ingram told NBC. The woman, who is expected to recover fully, was later charged with driving while intoxicated.
