Phoenix, United States - June 16, 2025 On June 16, a motorcyclist trapped beneath a car after a crash was saved thanks to the quick action of police and firefighters near 7th Street and Grovers. Sergeant Richard Jarrett of the Phoenix Police was the first to arrive. He was returning to the Black Mountain Precinct when he heard the emergency call. Body camera footage captures a first responder telling the victim, “Do me a favor. Keep breathing. Don’t move, OK? Nice and slow breaths, OK?” Sgt. Jarrett explained that the motorcyclist had fallen off his bike and become pinned under the middle of a Buick near the driver’s side tire. He stayed with the rider to keep him calm until help arrived. “He’s a tough guy,” Sgt. Jarrett said. “He wasn’t screaming, and he was sitting there waiting patiently, surprisingly for us. So he’s a very, very tough guy to do that.” The Phoenix Fire Department and Sgt. Jarrett lifted the vehicle with their bare hands while another firefighter pulled the trapped man free. The motorcyclist survived and is recovering from a broken leg. “I’m glad he’s OK, and I’m glad it worked out for him for sure, because being ran over by cars is very serious, and we see a lot of fatalities from that,” Sgt. Jarrett said.
