July 25, 2024
A Texas police officer pulled a man in a burning Tesla to safety. Officials say the Tesla hit a barricade and flipped over as it tried to exit a tollway. It became wedged between the wall that separates the northbound and southbound traffic, then caught on fire. Officer Edwardo Hernandez, who has only been on the force for 19 months, broke the glass and freed the trapped driver. Officials say the driver was taken to the hospital. He is reportedly alert and recovering.
