A black Ford Mustang had lost control while traveling north along Bayview, crashing into cement pillars near the stores loading dock.
Arriving at the scene of a crash to find a car in flames with the driver stuck inside, Jadin Brown and Cameraon Whiddon knew what to do – and what they did may have saved a man's life.
“That’s what we’re supposed to do. We’re mandatory first responders, we have the training, why wouldn’t we help?," Brown said.
Both are 20 year old students at Royal Military College in Kingston, and have been trained to handle a situation like the one they found last night.
It was just after 10:30 p.m., the two men were outside after having watched the World Juniors on television at Whiddon’s home near Bayview and Moore Avenue, they told CTV News.
“We hear the car speeding by and go, people are being stupid,” Brown said.
Soon they heard a crash. “It didn’t sound like it was a normal bang that you would hear every night," Whiddon said.
They followed the sound, and it led them to a parking lot outside.
