Police officers in Bridgeport, Connecticut, were praised for their heroic actions after they rescued a woman from a burning car on Tuesday, February 25.

According to reports, Officer Ramirez of the Bridgeport police arrived at the scene of a single-vehicle crash on Chopsey Hill Road early Tuesday morning. Ramirez found the vehicle on its side with a woman still inside.

Police said Ramirez tried and failed to pull out the woman through the passenger window before she was joined by other police officers.
