SAN DIEGO (CBS 8) - A local Marine is being hailed a hero for pulling a man from his car just moments before it caught fire.
Patrick Sammon says he was leaving a liquor store in Miramar Saturday night when he heard two cars collide. Sammon rushed over to the crash to find the driver of a black sedan unconscious. Without hesitation, Sammon pulled the man to safety.
The driver of the other vehicle involved suffered a broken leg. Sammon also helped move that driver away from the burning vehicle.
There is no word yet on what caused the accident.
