INSIDE THAT CAR. NATHANIEL BUNN TELLS ME HE NEVER THOUGHT TWICE ABOUT LEAVING HIS VEHICLE AND RUNNING TO HELP. IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC, HE SAYS. HE WAS ACTUALLY SITTING AT THIS LIGHT AT THE END OF THE WEST END BRIDGE ON SUNDAY, WHEN HE WATCHED A VEHICLE FLIP ONTO ITS ROOF, AND HE JUMPED OUT AND RAN TO HELP. IT WAS A LOUD, A LOUD BOOM. AND THEN A CAR WENT IN THE AIR AND LANDED AND JUST, YOU KNOW, WE JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE NOBODY WAS HURT. IF WE COULD. STANDING FEET FROM WHERE THAT CAR FLIPPED FOUR DAYS AGO. NATHANIEL BUNN REMEMBERS IT ALL VERY CLEARLY, INCLUDING HIS FAMILY’S AND A STRANGER’S DESPERATE ATTEMPTS TO FREE THE DRIVER. BUT THE VEHICLE WAS ON ITS ROOF, AND THE DOOR WAS STUCK, BUT WE COULDN’T PRY IT OPEN, SO I RESIGNED TO SIT DOWN AND JUST TOLD HER TO HOLD MY HAND, AND SHE SQUEEZED IT FOR COMFORT. THOSE MOMENTS WERE CAPTURED HERE IN THIS IMAGE, BUNN SAYS, THE WOMAN HOLDING HIS HAND INSIDE THE CAR WASN’T MAKING A NOISE, BUT SHE WAS HOLDING HIM TIGHT AS HE TOLD HER IT WOULD BE OKAY, THAT AN AMBULANCE WAS ON THE WAY. I WAS FEELING KIND OF IN DESPAIR. I DON’T FEEL LIKE THAT OFTEN JUST BECAUSE OF HOW THE WORLD IS GOING ON. A LOT OF THINGS AND A LOT OF PEOPLE WERE VIDEOTAPING AND STUFF, BUNN SAYS. SEEING SO MANY RECORDING RATHER THAN HELPING. WHILE HE HELD ON TO A STRANGER, HE COULDN’T SEE BOTHERED HIM. BUT HE IS GRATEFUL HE WAS HERE AND HE STAYED IN THIS SPOT UNTIL PARAMEDICS ARRIVED. BUT BUNN TELLS ME HE HAS THOUGHT A LOT ABOUT THE DRIVER SINCE. I DID CALL AG TO ASK HOW THE CRASH ACCIDENT WAS DOING AND THEY SAID, WE CAN JUST TELL YOU THAT NO ONE’S CRITICAL. I DIDN’T KNOW HER NAME. BUNN ONLY HOPES THE DRIVER IS NOW HEALING AND THAT THIS SHOWS OTHERS COMPASSION COUNTS. EVERYBODY SHOULD HAVE MAYBE LEARN FROM THIS IF IT’S POSSIBLE. IF YOU SEE SOMEBODY IN A SITUATION WHERE YOU CAN HELP, TRY TO HELP THEM. DON’T BE SELFISH. BUNN TELLS ME HE IS ALSO GRATEFUL THAT HIS 18 YEAR OLD SON WAS BY HIS SIDE AND RAN TO HELP AS WELL. HE HOPES THAT’S A LESSON HE WILL CARRY ON. ALWAYS COVERING ALLEGHE
