A mother battled to save her baby after her stroller was dragged under an out-of-control taxi in New York yesterday. The taxi was being driven by a 68-year-old man who lost consciousness at the wheel.
The cab crashed into two cars before hitting the mother and baby.
The stroller and baby disappeared under the car and the 17-year-old mother, Alondra Gervacio, grabbed her eight-month-old baby from under it moments later.
Sky News quoted Ms Gervacio as saying she felt no pain after the car slammed into her, and could think only of her child.
Both mother and daughter suffered only minor injuries but the driver was pronounced dead after being taken to hospital.
