“I was in my car on [State Highway] 199 right in front of the donut shop when the pilot landed on the power lines,” Cara Camp told the outlet. “While driving, I heard a loud explosion and debris was hitting the car.”
“I knew there are old ladies in that house that it happened at and I was banging on their door but they wouldn’t come out because they thought it was just a car, so I grabbed them out,” she said. “The house behind that, I ran over to the next street and got that lady out of that house because she’s paralyzed and she needed to get out.”
“I’m having anxiety, but all I wanted to do was save those old ladies because I’ve known them since I was really, really, little,” added Deramus. “They’re okay physically.”
