Body camera - police officers pulling a man out of burning car

On Christmas Day 2014, Okaloosa County Sheriff's deputies Joseph Trimboli and Eric Keyes responded to a traffic crash with injuries on Main Street in Destin. They arrived to find heavy flames around the rear of the car. The flames were spreading to the inside and the driver was still behind the wheel with the door locked. Deputy Keyes had to hit and shatter the passenger side window to getthe man out alive. The individual's clothes were already on fire. With the car fully engulfed, deputies Keyes and Trimboli pulled him thrown the broken window, risking their own lives to save the driver's. The man later expressed his gratitude for their heroic efforts. Their actions - putting their own personal safety aside to save the life of another individual - has earned deputies Trimboli and Keyes the respect of their co-workers and supervisors - and the Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office "Medal of Merit".
