Clayton mail carrier goes the extra mile in this daring rescue

CLAYTON, CA (Apr. 26, 2024) — It was a regular day, just a regular day,” Jack Roy says of the time he averted disaster.

Roy was on his mail route in Clayton when he saw a UPS truck veering off toward someone’s front yard. The driver passed out and was foaming at the mouth at the wheel.

Roy slammed his mail truck to a halt and began to sprint. He jumped into the UPS truck and figured out how to put it in park. He then made sure the driver got medical attention, saving her life.

“So it’s still rolling. I jumped in, and her whole body had fallen over to the side,” Roy recalls, adding: “It hit the curve, and that’s when her body dumped over.”
