Three Florida teens are being praised as heroes after spotting that something was seriously wrong with a man stranded on the side of the road – and their quick thinking may have saved his life.
Logan Royer, 16, Cody Magrone, 16, and Brody Murray, 17, had been sitting inside a McDonald’s in Cooper City, Florida, when they noticed 65-year-old Diego Fernandez-Delgado dealing with a flat tire on South Flamingo Road after one of his tires blew out.
His phone had died, leaving him stuck trying to change the tire on his own. That’s when the three teens stepped in to help. But the boys quickly realized this was about more than just a flat tire.
With temperatures climbing into the 90s, they noticed Fernandez-Delgado appeared seriously unwell and suspected he could be suffering from a heat-related medical emergency. The teens immediately called 911 and stayed with him while waiting for first responders to arrive, following instructions from dispatchers to keep him as comfortable and safe as possible.
