A UPS driver became the hero of the day when he rescued a woman and her 3-year-old son from a domestic abuse situation. The abuser, James Jordan, had locked his son in a room without food or water and was physically and sexually abusing the woman. He had taken her phone to prevent her from contacting anyone and beat her severely.
The woman managed to pass a message to the UPS driver through a package he came to pick up. She wrote “contact 911” on the box while pretending everything was fine in front of her husband who held a gun behind her. The UPS driver noticed the message and immediately contacted 911.
A SWAT team quickly responded to the call and rescued the woman and her child from Jordan’s abuse. The woman’s prayers for a person to be observant while on the job were answered, and the UPS driver’s keen observation skills saved their lives.
The rescue was nothing short of a movie-like scene, and the UPS driver’s actions were praised by many. Domestic violence is a serious issue, and this story serves as a reminder to be vigilant and speak up if you suspect someone may be in danger.
