The Illing Middle School teacher was pulling onto a ramp on I-384 when she saw a car pulled over with smoke coming out of it and the driver hanging from the door. “I saw the smoke. I didn’t see the fire. So I’m like is something broken down and smoking? And then why is he not out of the car yet. Something just didn’t sit right with me,” Sica-Leonard says.“I said, ‘Oh my goodness. Are you stuck? How can I help you?’ And he said, ‘I’m handicapped, I need my wheelchair,’” Sica-Leonard described.Moments later, the van burned to the ground. Officials believe the fire started after the van’s fuel tank ruptured.
Sica-Leonard said she hopes people find it in themselves to stop and help if they see someone in distress.Copyright 2023 WFSB via Gray Media Group, Inc. All rights reserved.
