As body camera footage shows the officer opening the cruiser door, the child can be heard screaming. The officer walked over to pick him up as he tried to run back to the truck he was ejected from.
The officer can be seen carrying the child to the cruiser and placing him in the driver’s seat. He sustained only minor injuries.
“This video is nothing short of a miracle … traffic enforcement is not just about writing citations. It’s about preventing tragedies and keeping our community safe. Please take a few extra seconds to make sure everyone in your vehicle is properly restrained before every trip,” the department stated.
The child was not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash, USA Today reports. The driver was cited for not properly restraining a child.
