Judge Dismisses $10,000 Lawsuit Against Car Fire Rescuer
He wanted $10,000 because his rescuer pulled
too hard. The judge told him he should be shaking
his hand, not suing him. I didn't ask for help,
Your Honor. I was waiting for EMS. He grabs
me, yanks me out like a rag doll, pulls me so
hard he dislocated my shoulder. I'm suing for
$10,000 in medical bills and pain and suffering.
The car was smoking, Your Honor. I saw flames
under the hood. I didn't think about his shoulder.
I just grabbed him and dragged him out before
it went up. I mean, should I have left him in
there?
I'm sorry, Your Honor. It's just... No. Sir.
Florida Statute 768.13 grants absolute immunity
to anyone providing emergency aid in good faith.
The man saved your life and you want a payout?
You should be shaking the man's hand. It's unfortunate.
This case is dismissed with prejudice.
