MESA, Ariz. (KPHO/Gray News) – A woman rescued a toddler who was walking in the middle of an intersection.

The rescue was caught on a dash camera.

“I was scared. It wasn’t something that I expected to experience that night,” said the woman, who wishes to remain anonymous.

In the video, cars pass the toddler who is running towards oncoming traffic. The woman approaches the boy, grabs him and carries him to safety.

“At that moment. I was in shock. I was shaking the entire time,” she said.

“My heart dropped. I was actually on the phone with my husband and hung up on him, opened the door, ran to him,” she said.

She said it was dark, and she could hear screaming but couldn’t tell where they were coming from.
