According to the Victorville Daily Press – Chris Stated: “I saw smoke coming out of the vehicle and I thought it was going to explode,” My wife Andrena called 911, I parked my car to the side and ran down the hill and I could hear the mother and the children screaming. So I ripped off the trunk of the car and pulled the three kids out.”
One of the victims Francisco Martinez of Adelanto stated he and his wife were driving home from picking up their three sons from Riverside Prep when the accident occurred. He said one of the two dogs had run off during the crash. Martinez said he and his family were thankful for Chris’s assistance.
