Local Hero Tells GNA About Life Saving Moment (Audio)
Every weekday morning at around 9:45, Chrissy and I do a Good News segment - highlighting a positive, uplifting, or inspirational story. Tuesday morning we talked about a local contractor named Joe Shewczyk who was in his work truck on Friday morning and watched an accident unfold on alternate Route 7, Latham, right before his very eyes. With some quick thinking, bravery, and a little help from what he calls a 'greater power' Joe was able to save the life of young girl with Cerebral palsy. This morning he shared with us the harrowing account of how his day went from normal to heroic in a split second.
Joe Shewczyk is a local contractor and Marine Corps veteran from Cambridge who saved a life on Friday. He talks to us about he was able to save a girl from a burning car after he witnessed an accident on his way to work. He's cool, calm , collected, and quick thinking.
Thank you for your service sir, and for being an all around outstanding citizen.
Brian, Chrissy, Jess and all of us here at GNA
