A FedEx driver is being hailed as a hero by police after he jumped into freezing water to save a woman who had crashed her car. Brandon Alt was just getting started on his delivery route that goes through Truckee, Calif. when the car in front of him veered off the road and into the river below. Alt pulled his SUV over to the side of the road, put his hazard lights on, and slid down the embankment to the icy waters to help the driver. He managed to pull her free of the car, brought her to the embankment and then called the police. Alt doesn't see himself as a hero, saying, I was at the right place at the right time. I hope anyone else in that situation would have done something similar.
