I would say he [Luke] was heroic in leading the charge on how to get her out. He didn't have to do that, he was also one of the injured parties so for him to be there helping me was amazing.

Luke said he smelled smoke, 'Let's get her out’. He went in through the trunk and pulled her out. And then we both carried her over to the curb so we could lay her down and make sure she stays safe.
