VEYO, Utah â A couple whose house became engulfed in flames in the early morning hours of June 8 owe their lives to a truck driver who spotted the fire, woke them, and carried one of them outside to safety, according to a report from the St. George News.
It was shortly after 3:00am when the Center Street fire was reported; the truck driver saw the blaze and called 911, according to Veyo Fire Chief Chris Larsen.
When Larsen arrived at the scene, he feared that the occupants of the house may still be inside unaware of the flames engulfing the home, but found them outside. It was then he learned of the driver s heroic actions, who had already left before the fire crew arrived.
