Authorities in Southern California say a mailman came to the rescue of a man who accidentally cut his own arm with a chainsaw.
NORWALK, CALIF. (AP) — A mailman on his route in Southern California came to the rescue of a man who accidentally cut his own arm with a chainsaw late last week, authorities said.
United States Postal Service mailman Fernando Garcia was wrapping up his shift in Norwalk when he heard a loud scream from a nearby house and rushed toward the home to help, KNBC-TV reported Monday.
The Los Angeles County sheriff’s department posted on Twitter Friday from the Norwalk station that the man is expected to recover because of Garcia’s quick action.
“I was a little panicky but at the end of the day … I did what anybody else would have done, which was to try to stop the bleeding,” Garcia said. “I was just fortunate to be there, to help him out.”
It is unclear what the man was doing with the chainsaw at the time of the accident.
