The incident, which was captured on video, showcased the quick thinking and bravery of Deputy Nicole Miron and her partner Deputy Anthony Gross.

The deputies were alerted to a silver GMC Sierra that was swerving and moving at a mere 5 miles per hour along southbound Gratiot Avenue.

Upon arrival, they attempted to pull the vehicle over, but the driver appeared dazed and unresponsive to their commands.

As they assessed the situation, it became apparent that the driver was likely experiencing a medical emergency rather than simply ignoring their requests.

As the situation escalated, Deputy Miron made a split-second decision to leap into action.

When the driver finally rolled down his window and hit the brakes, she quickly climbed through the passenger side window of her own patrol vehicle into the moving truck.
