Oklahoma man uses vintage fire truck to get people out of deadly cold | ABS-CBN News

A dangerous winter storm sweeping across the United States has brought life-threatening cold temperatures to much of the country, with wind chills plunging well below zero and placing vulnerable people at extreme risk.  In Tulsa, Oklahoma, one man is taking extraordinary steps to help those caught out in the frigid conditions. Ryan Duval is spending the weekend driving a more than 40-year-old fire truck around to transport people off the streets and into warming shelters as temperatures dipped into dangerous conditions. "(I) bought this truck from a government auction and it just kind of sat for a while and decided to do something with it this weekend, feeling the need for helping folks," said Duval. Cruising Tulsa’s streets, Duval stops when he sees someone exposed to the elements, offering rides to warming shelters. Even if someone declines, he says he still tries to help. “If they don’t take it, I can at least warm them up in the truck and just get them a water, meal, something.” Tulsa city officials continue to warn that prolonged exposure to the extreme cold can quickly lead to hypothermia or frostbite. Duval hopes his efforts inspire others to step in where they can. “It’s just giving back to a community like everybody should do,” Duval said. “If I can do it, anybody can do it.” As the winter storm continues to grip the region, authorities urge residents to check on neighbors, limit time outdoors, and seek shelter immediately if exposed to dangerous cold.
