Dramatic footage captured by a body camera reveals a Florida deputy rescuing a woman from a blazing vehicle just moments before it was consumed by flames.
This harrowing event unfolded after a woman was violently carjacked on Sunday night, with the assailant speeding off while her 1-year-old child remained strapped in the back seat, as reported by the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office.
Deputies quickly located the stolen vehicle a few blocks away. However, as they attempted to intercept the car, the suspect collided with another vehicle, resulting in a fiery crash, according to officials.
Deputy Almin Residovic sprinted towards the impacted car, urgently requesting a tool from a colleague to shatter the window.

Upon wrenching the car door open, Residovic discovered a woman inside, with flames engulfing her hair.
“Oh, there’s a person bro!” Residovic is heard exclaiming in the footage.
The sheriff’s office said, “without hesitation,” Residovic pulled the woman from the burning vehicle, dragging her to safety and providing emergency medical aid until help arrived.
Video showed him repeatedly asking the woman if there was anybody else in the car. Authorities later confirmed a 14-year-old escaped the vehicle before law enforcement arrived.

“Please stay with me,” Residovic told the woman. “Stay with us. Come on. We need to get you away from the car. … Just hang out, you’re OK.”
Residovic turned to another first responder, saying, “Bro, I got to her just in time. Literally, [at] the last second, I got to her.”

Another deputy safely removed the 1-year-old from the stolen vehicle unharmed, according to authorities.
The carjacking suspect, Richard Younger, 34, was arrested at the crash site and was charged with multiple felonies.
“We are incredibly proud of Officer Residovic’s courage and the swift, coordinated response of all the officers involved,” the sheriff’s office wrote in a statement. “After speaking with the woman on the phone this afternoon, she tells us she is incredibly grateful to be alive and for the quick actions taken by Officer Residovic.”
Authorities said the woman from the burning car, who has not been publicly identified, is continuing to recover.
