“I just wanted to do the right thing and be a good citizen.'
“I got a dog out, out of the back [of the vehicle] for the owners, and the owners are safe. There’s nobody inside of it, and a fire truck is on its way,” said Ruhe. “I called the fire department.”
KTXL reported that “the fire department was able to fully extinguish the fire” and noted that, according to Amazon, there were no injuries.“We are very grateful to Ervin for going above and beyond and helping out a community member and their pet while in distress,” a representative of Amazon, Navneet Kaur, said, according to KTXL.
“I just wanted to do the right thing and be a good citizen,” Ruhe said in an email that was provided to the outlet from Amazon. “I saw they needed help and so I acted quickly to do what I can.” Ruhe said he had used the fire extinguisher once before when he stopped to help a farmer “extinguish [an] equipment fire burning near tall grass and gas cans,” per Modbee, meaning his dog rescue is not the only time he has demonstrated selflessness and a willingness to aid those in need.
