I put it into park immediately… checked on him, he was in a daze, he wasn't sure what was going on," Miron added.Gross was driving, and Miron rolled down her window and tried to get the driver to stop, but he appeared to be in a daze. The driver managed to briefly hit his brakes and that's when Miron climbed from her passenger seat into the moving truck. The deputy was able to stop the truck.Raw video below: Deputy climbs into moving truck"Once she started hanging out the window, I was just trying to keep us aligned with him," Gross said."Luckily, I am very small. When I went through the window, it was a big-size front kind of window, I was able to slide right through. I don't think any of my gun or gear touched him, so I slid through, my small stature helped and the fact that we were a two-man car helped," Miron told WXYZ.The Clinton Township Fire Department was called in to treat the driver and he was taken to a hospital. His family was notified.It appears the driver had experienced a medical episode."I commend Deputy Miron for putting herself in harm's way to help a citizen in need and protect other drivers on the roadway," Macomb County Sheriff Anthony Wickersham said in a statement. "Due to her quick thinking and selfless actions, she safely ended what could have been a tragic situation."
