'I was in awe to see him': Bernie Sanders saved a woman from getting hit by a car while he was out for a walk in DC, and she's very grateful
Amy Currotto was deep in thought as she headed to a guitar lesson on Capitol Hill on Wednesday and wasn't paying attention as she started to cross a busy intersection.
She was walking straight into oncoming traffic when Sen. Bernie Sanders stepped in and saved the day.
"Sen. Sanders was apparently behind me," Currotto told Business Insider. "He didn't grab me or anything," she said, but started shouting, "Ma'am! Ma'am!"
As she turned around, Currotto was so shocked to see that the panicked screams were emanating from the former presidential candidate that she froze like a deer in headlights.
"I did not immediately get off the street, even though there was a ton of oncoming traffic, because I was in awe to see him," she said. "He tried to continue to bring me onto the sidewalk and was like, 'Ma'am, you've got to get off of the street! You've got to get off of the street!'"
After a few more seconds of being in "complete awe," Currotto got back to safety thanks to Sanders.
Once she was back on the sidewalk, Currotto asked the Vermont senator if she could take a selfie with him, and he obliged. She said Sanders was quite "concerned" about her standing in the street and was "very, very kind."
