Jordan Bontke is thrilled to finally be in the Valley to report for ABC15.
A Valley woman is hoping to share her gratitude after a rideshare driver helped her get emergency care earlier this summer. Karen Fischer reached out to ABC15 to let us know about a Lyft driver who tracked down help when she fell on hot pavement during Phoenix's unprecedented heat wave. ”First time I ever thought I was going to die,' she said.
