FORT WORTH, Texas - A Fort Worth man recently stepped in to save a woman from an armed carjacker. She’s calling him her hero.
The crime happened in the middle of the day Saturday at a gas station on Camp Bowie Boulevard at Horne Street on Fort Worth’s west side.
Susan Torres was sitting inside her car when the suspect came up with a gun. He pointed it at her head and told her to get out.
“All I kept thinking was he’s gonna shoot me and the kids will not have a mother. That was the thought going through my head,” she said.
Sam Anderson was parked nearby and saw the whole thing. He jumped out of his car to help.
Anderson tried to get inside Torres’ car but the suspect had already locked the doors. He said he pulled on the handle so hard he tore it off.
He punched in the window and grabbed the gun as the suspect tried to start the car. When the suspect took off running, he chased him and fought with him a couple of times before the police arrived.
Tommy Cargill, 31, was arrested and charged with aggravated robbery.
Torres is grateful for Anderson’s help. She believes he saved her life.
"It's not every day there's this guy who's a hero," she said

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
