SHIT!, that was close. Do a frame by frame of the video to see just how close.

“66-year-old man, hurt his leg” he’s lucky he didn’t lose his leg......or more. The wheelchair didn’t fare so well.

No matter what she did here, in the past, or future, she'll still be called a "Bastard" by the BLM Movement. Think about that for a moment and consider how it's applied to more than 700,000 officers nationwide. I'm sure her decisiveness and valor will be recognized by her fellow officers and members of the community, as it well should be. If there was a moment's hesitation, I sure didn't see it.

Wow, without hesitation and very lucky she wasn't injured herself.

A shining example of why most of our law enforcement officers are serving.

The story made the national news this morning. I could be wrong, but I don't think pulling people out of wheelchairs in front of moving trains is something taught at the police academy. The whole thing took 15 seconds.

Well done Officer!

A great job by the officer.

What was the guy doing on those tracks with his wheel chair?

I wonder if perhaps he was intentionally on the tracks. Either way it doesn’t take away from the story.

Given his position on the tracks I wonder if he attempted to cross the tracks and the wheel got caught between the rail and the road.

They said "leg injury" from the way he got hit and the look of his leg I wouldn't be surprised if he loses his lower leg.
