Deputy Miron, who had been in the passenger side of the patrol vehicle, was able to exit the window of the Sheriff’s SUV and climb into the truck while the vehicles continued traveling. Macomb County Sheriff's Office

Bodycam footage captured a highway rescue fit for the silver screen when a deputy stopped tragedy in its tracks by climbing through the window of one moving vehicle to the other.

Macomb County Sheriff's Office was alerted that a silver pickup truck was driving erratically on Gratiot Avenue on the afternoon of Sept. 12. Deputies Nicole Miron and Anthony Gross responded, activating siren and lights when they located the driver.

When they pulled up alongside the vehicle, Deputy Miron rolled down her window to find the unresponsive driver "in a daze." Miron eventually managed to talk the disoriented man through rolling his window down.

With Deputy Gross at the wheel, Miron climbed from her passenger seat and through the window of the moving truck. Miron made it over the driver to safely bring the pickup to a stop.

"Luckily, I am very small. When I went through the window, it was a big-size front kind of window, I was able to slide right through," Miron said in an interview with WXYZ Detroit. "I don't think any of my gun or gear touched him, so I slid through, my small stature helped and the fact that we were a two-man car helped."

Deputy Gross had been recently promoted and was still in training on the day of the rescue. "Once she started hanging out the window," Gross told WXYZ Detroit, "I was just trying to keep us aligned with him."

The driver was taken to the hospital, having experienced a medical episode. His family sent flowers to Deputy Miron, who is being commended for her quick action and bravery.
