A Texas highway turned into the scene of a real-life rescue when a state trooper sprang into action to save a choking woman pulled over on the side of the road.
Dashcam footage shows the officer approaching the vehicle after noticing it had stopped abruptly. Inside, he found a woman struggling to breathe, clutching her throat. Without hesitation, he pulled her from the car and began performing the Heimlich maneuver.
After several tense seconds, the object — later confirmed to be a piece of food — was dislodged, and the woman could breathe again.
Paramedics arrived shortly after, confirming she was stable and deeply grateful for the officer’s quick response.
Social media is calling him a hero — and rightfully so.
