Man lifts car off trapped cyclist

“PHOENIX, Arizona — A hefty bystander at a road accident in southern Arizona heaved a car clean off a trapped teenage cyclist, possibly saving his life, police said on Friday.

Eighteen-year-old Kyle Holtrust was struck by a car as he pedaled along a Tucson highway late on Wednesday and pinned beneath it, city police said.

Tucson paintshop worker Tom Boyle grabbed the Chevrolet Camaro car and lifted it, allowing the driver to haul the injured cyclist clear.

‘He lifted that side of the car completely off the ground,’ police spokesman Frank Amado told Reuters by telephone.” (Reuters)
