A security video from the A1 Carwash car wash in Hesperia, California, showed a baby stroller blown by the wind toward a busy road and a woman tumbling to the ground as she tried to stop it from rolling into traffic.
In the video the woman, who was identified as the child's great-aunt, tried to stand but fell again.
Ronald Nessman, a formerly homeless man who just happened to be in the area for a job interview, heroically sprinted across the lot to save the stroller before it could roll into the busy street.
In an interview, Nessman told the story of what happened.
"I wouldn’t know what to do if that was my child. She didn’t see anybody who could save the baby."
"I knew I could get it and I got it and I’m thankful for that because I really wouldn’t want to see the end result if I wasn’t there."
Nessman went on to say that when he grabbed the stroller, the baby smiled up at him.
