Truck driver in crash with school bus helps free trapped students before he collapses

after the crash, Georgia State Trooper Shane Copeland told WSAV, NBC's affiliate in Savannah. He said footage from the bus surveillance camera showed Grayer lifting seats to release children trapped underneath.“We’ve had other accidents and tragedies and things like that in the past, but this one… had you shaken the most out of all of them,” Tyler Beach, a Bacon County fire and EMS compliance officer, told WSAV.

All 10 children suffered non-life threatening injures, with six taken to nearby hospitals with cuts and broken bones. The bus driver, Jerry Sweat, was also injured and taken to a hospital, WSAV reported.

Tragedy

🙏

What a man!

This is what ordinary American Heroes do - and Thank God for them.

Heartbreaking

MUY HONORABLE

Y SI...DESPUES DE LA CAGADA QUE SE MANDO ...HEROISMO Y MUERTE

Wow...talk about redemption...sad, sad story for everyone involved.

From the images available online; it doesn't look like the Georgia school bus in the deadly crash, was at a designated stop. It looks like the middle of a limited access highway. And: the stop sign on the side of the bus, isn't extended and flashing.

My condolences to his family and friends, but those kids should never have been going back to school. Georgia is turning into a third world country.

As he should have.

the wording here is something else. The truck crashed into the school bus on its own? Why are crashes like this always in the passive voice? Man crashes truck into school bus. Is that hard?

Rip that man he was in a car crash and managed to save people the. The poor man died rip Sir courageous brave .......

Maybe he had covid 19

Why are there kids in school buses during a pandemic?

God Bless the young man & Prayers for his loved ones.

So he helped trapped students, that he trapped.

It would probably been more effective if he'd tried to help the students by not running into the bus.

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

🥺😔😔😔

That accent tho.

Texting, no doubt.

Wow looks like it got hit by coronavirus

better Angels among us and in us...

Probably wouldn’t have happened had school been online huh? 🤯🤯🤯

😢

COVID, again!

Accidents happen. This man died a hero. RIP Johnathan Grayer.

Georgia has been in the news a ton this week.

Last Rights! He did his and May peace be with all.

Damn prayers up

God knows

Wow. You never know where heroes come from, until they're by your side. Deepest sympathies to his family.

John 15:13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.😔

Oh what a sad story - so terrible that a hero gets no recognition in our country where scandals are constant

he was a angel on earth.. bless him.. rest in peace..

HERO

He DID make amends for his mistake ... Poor guy. Sometimes ppl cause accidents without bad will. One simply can´t be 100% sharp all the time...

So many silent heroes
