‘Pretty intense’: Quick-thinking dad pulls driver from flaming wreck on Hwy. 400

SooToday

Thanks for the comment, and for visiting our site. I appreciate it. The vast majority of our stories are hyper local. Our extensive coverage of today's snowstorm is a prime example. But sometimes we publish relevant articles from our partner sites across the province. This one, from BarrieToday, is about an Ontario man who went above and beyond to save a person on a stretch of highway that plenty of Saultites drive on every year. And our network (Village Media) was the only one to cover this story, so you couldn't go to various other sites to read about it. Again, I appreciate your feedback. Bottom line: our news site covers all the important stories happening in the Sault — and some stories outside the Sault that resonate with people here. This one definitely fits the bill: a story about an ordinary Ontarian doing something heroic.
