Good Samaritans

My family and I would like to express our deep appreciation to the police, emergency personnel and all of the others who helped our daughter and her children following the accident on Spring Road and Tierra Rejada on Thursday, Sept. 26.

Her car was struck by a vehicle that ran a red light while running from the police, then crashed into our daughter's car. Our daughter had her two children, ages 3 and 4 months, in the back seat of her car. Her car spun, flipped into the air and then rolled. Once it stopped moving, she was unable to open the doors to get her children out.

Thank you so much to the bystanders who helped her get her children out of their car seats and to safety, then helped her hold and calm her children and came forward as witnesses to the accident.

Our daughter and her children are all fine, and we are very grateful to everyone who took the time to get involved and to help in what could have been an extremely tragic accident. Thank you all so much.
