Toddler Thrown From Truck Into Bay in Crash—Then Heroic Bystander Leaps In, Saves Her Life
A toddler was thrown from a truck, off a bridge, and into the water of a bay in Maryland during a vehicle collision on May 2. Heroically, a good Samaritan leapt in and retrieved the baby girl with help from nearby boaters.
The five-car crash occurred just before 3 p.m. on a Route 90 bridge connecting Ocean City to the rest of Worcester County. The impact threw a 23-month-old, still in her car seat, from one of the vehicles into Assawoman Bay, according to a press release.
