His colleague started to film the whole process on camera. You can see Perry carry the woman to safety and place her on the road as passers-by rushed over to help.
That’s what Brittany later wrote on her Facebook:
"On our way to a story this morning and come across a burning vehicle on Hwy 63 just before Hwy 444. Photojournalist Patrick Perry jumps out and pulls a seven and half month pregnant woman from the passenger side. She's been taken to the hospital. You cover stories like this but rarely witness a hero first hand."
