A storm chaser in Jewell, Iowa, is being hailed a hero after saving a couple stranded on the side of the road.
Their car slid into a ditch as they drove to a doctor’s appointment.
Clarence Smith, who is a storm chaser, and an energy company worker decided on the best course of action and they safely rescued the pair one at a time.
"I'm sure that's not anything less than a traumatic experience," Smith said. "They were glad that we were both there, and the shock of it was still wearing off a little bit for them to wrap their head around it all."
