“This morning I witnessed something amazing that our Rome High Football players did,” math teacher Luis Goya wrote on Facebook. Goya, who works at the school in Rome, Georgia, saw a group of heroic teens save a woman’s life.
“While I was in front of the school during my morning duty, I heard a loud noise at the intersection that appeared to be a wreck,” his post continues. Goya said he ran to the intersection and saw two cars were involved – in one was a woman who couldn’t get out.
“The door was jammed and in terrible shape,” he said. “While I was on the phone with the 911 dispatcher, the football players who witnessed the wreck, ran to the car and started helping the lady.”
“They literally started using their strength to pry the door open, so the lady could be released,” Goya wrote. “After a few seconds of pulling and pushing the door, the boys ended up opening it and helped her get out of the car. She was shaking and still in panic, but our RHS boys gave her comfort and were able to help her.”
The school has identified those students as Cesar Parker, Treyvon Adams, Antwiion Carey, Messiah Daniels, Tyson Brown, Alto Moore. A representative for the school said Goya is a ninth-grade teacher and confirmed he was present and called 911 during the rescue.
“The Rome High School football players really showed up today. They went above and beyond to help this lady without hesitation,” Goya said.
When asked for further information, a representative from the Rome Police Department said at their last check, the woman in the car had some minor injuries.
Both Rome City Schools and Rome Police Department shared the story on their Facebook pages. CBS News has reached out to both for more information.
