Cellphone video captures Good Samaritan rescuing driver from fiery crash

When an SUV crashed through a utility pole on Alan Fein's street as he was stepping out of his Lyft shortly after midnight Thursday, the Woodmere man said he sprung into action, pulling the driver from the vehicle before it was consumed by flames, according to his account and footage from the scene. Fein, 58, a nursing home consultant, was returning from a business trip. At about 12:20 a.m., he was in the middle of lifting his luggage out of the car service that brought him home from LaGuardia, when he saw a blue 2018 Mercedes SUV with two men inside come barreling around the corner.
