Everyday Towing Hero in Australia

Kudos to this Australian tow truck driver! Here's the story from ABC Regional Online:

A tow truck driver helped rescue a woman from a house fire at Milton in Brisbane's west this afternoon.

The blaze badly damaged the house in Railway Terrace, which had a collection of artworks inside.

James Whimp says he was driving nearby when he noticed smoke.

"I ran down the back of the house to locate a ladder to get her down," he said.

"But I couldn't find one so I ran over to my truck and backed it down the driveway where two police officers, a paramedic and myself pulled her out of the window."
