KANSAS CITY, Kansas (KMBC) — The Kansas City, Kansas, Fire Department is asking for the public’s help to identify a person who rescued a driver from a burning vehicle earlier this month.
The department said in a Facebook post that crews responded March 5 to a crash on northbound Interstate 435 near State Avenue, where a vehicle hit a bridge pillar and caught fire.
Before firefighters arrived, a bystander pulled the driver from the burning vehicle.
The department said that likely saved the individual’s life.
“We’re just trying to find this individual so we can thank them for helping save a life,” the department said in a follow-up comment.
The Good Samaritan left before crews could get their name.
