VIDEO: Car driver saves couple pushing pram from horrific accident in US
- 25 Oct 2019
A hero in the form of a Chevrolet Cruze may have saved the lives of a couple pushing a pram through a Phoenix crosswalk on Oct.14.
The people were trying to cross Indian School at 53rd Avenue late in the evening when a car came barrelling through the red light.
A Chevrolet Cruze on 53rd Avenue entered the intersection on a green light when a Jeep driven by Ernesto Otanez Oveso slammed into that car, just a few feet away from the couple.
Oveso and a woman in the car with him took off running after the accident. Oveso noticed a witness was following him and told that man to stop, even stabbing one of the doors on his car.
The 28-year-old was arrested for “driving under the influence” and aggravated assault charges. Police also found a gun in the Jeep so an additional prohibited possession charge was added.
The driver of that Chevy Cruz was a 27-year-old woman. While she did suffer injuries, they were not life-threatening.
The incident took lace on Oct 14, 2019 at 10:10pm on 53rd Ave & Indian School crossing in Phoenix, Arizona.
