Fort Worth police and Good Samaritans rescue baby trapped under vehicle on interstate

Fort Worth, Texas, police officers are being hailed as heroes after body camera video showed them and several Good Samaritans lifting an overturned car to rescue an infant pinned beneath it after a crash on Interstate 30 last week.

Police responded around 9:30 a.m. Thursday after reports that a woman and her 1-year-old child had been ejected from a vehicle.

When officers arrived, they found an overturned car as Good Samaritans searched the wreckage for survivors.

Body camera footage obtained by FOX 4 in Dallas shows officers and Good Samaritans searching for a baby girl before realizing she was pinned beneath the car.
