Captain America rescued couple plus one


'Hero' Army Captain saves 3 people from fiery car-crash

Incredible moment real life Captain America rescued couple who were trapped in the burning wreck of their car after head-on crash thanks to his Army training

Army Captain Steve Voglezon was driving to a North Carolina mall on Sunday when he passed the scene of a fiery crash and jumped into action

He smashed the windows of one of the cars with a fire extinguisher and pulled out the couple trapped inside

Voglezon, who was wearing a Captain America T-shirt at the time, credited his Army training with helping him know what to do

The couple, William and Kathleen Thompson, and the other driver, Mark Ricketts, were taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries

Ricketts had driven into their lane and hit their car head-on


Incredible video taken by a witness and shared with WNCN shows the vehicles on fire as a police officer attempts to open the couple's locked crumpled doors.

Voglezon then grabs a fire extinguisher and uses it to smash the windows of the couple's vehicle before pulling out Mr Thompson and dragging him to the roadside.
