A passing truck driver helped police in Texas save the life of a suicidal teen who jumped off an overpass during rush hour traffic.
Arlington Police Department were responding to the call when an officer hatched the 'ingenious' plan to flag down the truck and position it directly under the 14-year-old along Interstate 20.
Motor Officer Deric Sheriff - a 17-year veteran of the department and former truck driver - flagged the big rig driver Dwayne Crawford and planned to line the underside of the bridge with passing trucks when the boy leaped onto the roof of the first vehicle.
