As flames began to spread quickly, he realized a female driver was trapped and unable to exit.

D’Addezio knew there wasn’t time to wait for emergency personnel, so he put himself in harm’s way, grabbed a ***** extinguisher, and pulled the woman out of the perilous situation before her truck was totally engulfed in flames.

“My body just started moving on its own,” D’Addezio said. “I told her it was going to be OK — ‘I’m here.’ I smiled and said I’d help [her] out.”

D’Addezio continued, “It’s important for all of us to work together in society the way it is these days.”
