PHOTO: A good Samaritan is being credited with pulling a woman from a burning SUV after the vehicle crashed into a barn overnight. Manitowoc County sheriff’s officials say they were called to the area of Highway 42, north of Irish Road just after 12:15 a.m. Authorities determined a 21-year-old woman from Kewaunee County was driving an SUV north on 42 when her vehicle went off the road and into the ditch. It hit a culvert, sending it flying through the air and into the barn. It then started on fire. A 41-year-old Manitowoc County man who heard the crash ran to the scene, unbuckled the driver’s seat belt and pulled her from the burning SUV. The driver was taken to the hospital. She is expected to survive her injuries. The driver was ticketed for first-offense operating while intoxicated.
