School bus driver helps put out fire at crash involving corrections officer

 

I grabbed the fire extinguisher,” Upham said.

The truck had caught fire with people who were trapped.

Upham had just received training on how to use the extinguisher.

“I got the fire out, and I was looking at the people in the vehicle, and it was really tough to say ya know? Nobody was in real good shape,” Upham said. “I tried to talk to a couple of them. I tried to calm one person down.”

A passenger in the truck didn’t make it, and a medical chopper landed in a yard.

“Really scary,” Upham said.

The corrections officer and inmate were hurt. “You could tell he was in shock he was just kinda mumbling on ‘I’m OK,'” Upham said.
