A former California sheriff’s deputy has credited “higher powers” for an unexpected reunion with a teen whom he saved from a fiery car wreck 12 years earlier.
On Jan. 19, 2007, Sonoma County Sheriff’s then-deputy Christopher Thorp witnessed the aftermath of a tragic car crash on Highway 101, south of Windsor, as per KTVU. A speeding vehicle collided with a Honda Civic sedan, in which 4-year-old Christian Flores was riding with his mother, his older brother, and another couple.
