Truck Driver Hailed Hero For Saving Woman's Life On Weirton Highway

A local truck driver is being hailed a hero for saving a woman's life on a West Virginia highway.

The woman had a heart attack on Route 22 in Weirton last week.

Police dashcam video shows George Lantzy pulling into the right lane in front of her white car to slow it down.

Lantzy, who drives for Fubar Trucking Co. out of Monroeville, is modest about his life-saving actions.

"You see a cape? I don't have a cape or mask. It's just something I had to do, that's all," said Lantzy.

Ironically, the woman was on her way to a doctor's appointment when she had the heart attack.
