Danny Trejo is the hero that we don’t deserve. The actor came to the rescue after he noticed a baby stuck in the wreckage of a car crash.
Two vehicles collided in Los Angeles on Wednesday evening. One of the vehicles involved in the accident overturned and Trejo sprung into action after noticing a baby strapped into the car seat. Trejo and a bystander, Monica Jackson, banded together to free the child.
“I couldn’t get the baby out,” Trejo explained. “I couldn’t unbuckle the seatbelt so she got in and undid the seatbelt. I pulled the baby out of the other outside. The only thing that saved that little kid was his car seat, honest to God.”
Trejo, being the perfect man that he is, Ever the optimist, imparted some fine words of wisdom to round off his evening of heroism adding: “Everything good that has happened to me has happened as a direct result of helping someone else. Everything.”
Three people involved in the accident were hospitalised; thankfully none of them suffered life-threatening injuries.
