A woman in California who stayed behind two hours after her shift had ended at work one evening found herself in just the right place at just the right time to save a lost child. She shared the heroic moment in a video TikTok which has since gone viral.
The dramatic CCTV footage which, at the time of writing, has already received nearly 5 million likes and 30 million views on TikTok, was posted by TikToker Mazaqueen. It shows her leaving work at around 3:30 in the early hours of Sunday morning. As she unlocks her car and gets inside a small child can be seen running towards the vehicle from the top right of the screen. She walks up to the door and, after what looks like a brief conversation, the woman lets her in.
