MORENO VALLEY, Calif. โ Witnesses say a pair of 16-year-old cousins didn't hesitate when they witnessed a car crash, rushing to pull a woman and her young child to safety after the vehicle rolled onto its side near a Riverside County mall.
The Press-Enterprise says Elijah and Jovantay Henderson were waiting for their grandmother to pick them up Tuesday when they saw the car spin out on nearby State Route 60. It landed on its side.
A witness says the boys sprinted across the parking lot, climbed an embankment and slipped through a fence to get to the car. They pulled the daughter out first, then the mother, and waited with them for an ambulance to arrive. There was no word on injuries.
The CHP is investigating.
The teens' grandmother says she's extremely proud of their actions.
