A heroic police officer risked his life to save a woman from a burning car on Friday in Spokane, Washington.
Spokane Police Officer Tim Schwering was the first to arrive at the alarming scene and immediately tried to break the woman’s car window with a baton to get her out, the department told People.
“He was able to break through the drivers seat window and pulled her out,” says Michelle Anderson, the police departments public safety communications manager. “The entire car was filled with smoke.”
The woman, Kim Novak, was miraculously left unharmed, while Schwering was treated for smoke inhalation.
