WFAA profiled the five McKinney firefighters who performed the dramatic rescue of a tow truck driver whose cab was dangling from the Sam Rayburn Tollway overpass in October 2024, detailing how they broke through the cab glass and extracted the driver with only minor injuries, according to WFAA. The firefighters described the scene as something from a movie.
