This RCA grabbed an extinguisher as the vehicle burned at a gas station

Rural Carrier Associate Nicholas “Nick” Hernandez was recently driving to work in Kihei, HI, when he spotted a blaze at a gas station.

He checked if anyone was inside the burning vehicle and then grabbed a nearby fire extinguisher. As another person called 911, Hernandez remained there and assisted firefighters in extinguishing the blaze.

A passerby filmed Hernandez’s efforts to help and posted the footage on social media.

The Postal Service employee later learned the fire had been started deliberately.
