'Amazing' people help get poorly dog to vets during gridlock traffic
Evie Roberts was travelling on the A55 in Flintshire last Saturday afternoon to the vets for her four-year-old dachshund, Crumble, to get emergency spinal surgery. Evie's dog, Crumble (Image: UGC) She explained: "At about 4.30pm last Saturday I was travelling to Liverpool Small Animal Teaching Hospital with my very poorly dog for emergency surgery, and ended up diverted off the A55 at Caerwys and down a back lane towards the coast road, when the road became totally gridlocked. "Trying not to panic, we moved aside to wait for the traffic to clear and in passing, we mentioned where we were trying to get to, to another person stuck in the traffic. "Around 10 minutes later this amazing man came and said to us that everyone had moved aside for us to get through so we could get her the help she needed. He had been all the way down the queue and explained to everyone about our situation. "We did get there and she is now home and on the mend after emergency spinal surgery." Crumble is now back home resting after her surgery. (Image: UGC) Evie, who runs the Emporium second hand art and craft shop in Llandudno Junction, wanted to publicaly thank the man and all those who moved aside to let her pass. She said: "I just want to say a huge thank you to the people in that moment who did that for us, complete strangers, and to anyone on that road that moved and waited for us. "It was such a beautifully kind thing to do and I cried as I drove off whilst everyone waved us on our way. Amazing humans in a hot and busy situation. Thank you again." Evie had posted on an A55 group on Facebook to thank people, and has been blown away by the reaction. "It's had such a positive response it's had on Facebook, way more than I'd expected," she said. "I just wanted people to know that there is kindness in the world. And just not to stop believing in it. "It's so easy to see and hear the negatives all the time and think that that's all there is, but this proves different."

FIRE TRAGEDY Two firefighters dead & three fighting for life after truck skids off road & plunges into ravine while on emergency call Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) TWO firefighters have been killed and three left fighting for life after their truck skidded off the road and plunged into a ravine while on an emergency call in Portugal. The horrific accident happened around 7pm on Sunday in the village of São Francisco de Assis as the crew rushed to tackle a blaze in Quinta do Campo, Fundão. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Two firefighters were killed and three injured in a fire engine crash in Portugal Credit: SIC The fire engine veered off the road and crashed into a ravine, leaving devastation in its wake. One of the injured firefighters had to be airlifted by helicopter to Coimbra, SIC Notícias reports. According to the National Emergency and Civil Protection Authority (ANEPC), 26 operators were mobilized to the accident scene, supported by nine vehicles and an aircraft. Teams from the Covilhã and Fundão Volunteer Firefighters, the National Republican Guard (GNR), and the National Institute of Medical Emergency (INEM) were also deployed. In a statement, ANEPC paid tribute: "It is never enough to emphasize the commitment, altruism and professionalism with which, every day, thousands of firefighters across the country dedicate themselves, with courage and dedication, to defending the population and the forest against fires." The force offered condolences to the families of the victims and wishing a speedy recovery to the injured. President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa also expressed his sorrow, lamenting "the tragic death" of a firefighter "while serving the community" in the battle against rural fires. The head of state highlighted the sacrifice of firefighters nationwide, noting the crash came after "10 days of uninterrupted donation without limits of time and space" by those on the frontlines. Portugal is battling hundreds of raging wildfires that have swept across the country in recent weeks, part of a wave of deadly blazes scorching southern Europe. Terrifying footage even showed a rare fire tornado erupting in the northern region of Aguiar de Beira, underlining the extreme conditions firefighters are facing.
