Man Rushes to Help Shot Deputy

In a split second, a California man’s routine trip home turned into a frantic effort to save a stranger’s life. After witnessing the shooting of Sacramento County sheriff’s Deputy Alex Ladwig, 38-year-old Herb Hollaway had the option of either hiding or helping. Hollaway, instead of running away, chose to get off the train and run toward the injured deputy. He steadied the deputy and then took off his shirt and helped Ladwig apply pressure to his face.
