Police officers in New Jersey recently rescued a man from a burning car in a harrowing ordeal some are calling \u201ca miracle.\u201d<\/p>\n
Dashcam and bodycam video captured the moment police approached a burning car on Nov. 9, just before it was totally enveloped in flames.<\/p>\n
The driver, Safwan Islam, 26, reportedly had a medical incident that led the car to crash into a tree. After the accident, the iPhone\u2019s \u201cCall After Severe Crash\u201d feature automatically alerted 911 and cops then saved his life, WABC-TV\u00a0reported.<\/p>\n
Fortunately, South Brunswick Police Officers Yash Shroff and Thomas Sites arrived on the scene and immediately took action.<\/p>\n
They broke a window after seeing Islam unconscious and bleeding inside the vehicle. It quickly became apparent the situation was serious, as the car began to smoke.<\/p>\n
With just seconds to spare, the officers saved Islam. They somehow were able to drag him away from the vehicle \u2014 and just in time, as it suddenly burst into flames.<\/p>\n
\u201c[I\u2019m] just glad we got him out,\u201d Shroff\u00a0told WABC-TV. \u201cIt was just in time.\u201d<\/p>\n
Islam\u2019s dad, Naushad, called the ordeal \u201cnothing but a miracle.\u201d<\/p>\n
