A taxi driver rushed to the scene of a car crash to save the life of a mum.
Russell Cooper was driving in the early hours when he spotted a Volkswagen had crashed into a roundabout connecting East Prescot Road and Pilch Lane. He rushed towards the incident with a fire extinguisher from his own car, in an attempt to help the passengers still trapped inside as the car burst into flames.
Mum, Nasrin Saleh, had been driving the car with her friend Luqman Mehboob as a passenger at the time of the crash, at around 4.45am on October 10, 2021. Mr Cooper was able to drag Saleh from the wreckage before the fire intensified.
