Speaking of Amazon. A driver was hard at work on his route in New Smyrna Beach, Florida, when he heard screams for help. Sean Campbell was delivering packages in a subdivision and literally dropped what he was doing to rush to a burning home down the street.
The 23-year-old found one woman had escaped the house but a man was still trapped inside. Campbell ripped open the front door to get the elderly man with a walker out safely. “I heard the screaming and when you hear something like that, you have to go to it,” he says.
Tim West, the son of the man he saved, calls the Amazon driver their hero. “It was fantastic,” he says of Campbell’s rescue. “He was both here and able to go inside and brave enough to go inside. We really appreciate that.”
