ORLANDO, Fla. – Body camera video shows a 12-year-old boy sobbing and begging for Orlando Police Department officers to save his father and young brother who were trapped inside a submerged vehicle.
A 48-year-old man who was in the area at the time saw the crash and immediately rushed into the water to help the family.
Please help, help them,” the boy said, screaming at times.
Like the other two officers, Smith credited the bystander who held the 4-year-old boy’s head above water.
Both children were taken to Nemours Children’s Hospital, where their mother met them, and the father was taken to Orlando Regional Medical Center.
