OCEAN CITY — The “humble hero” who jumped off the Route 90 bridge to save a young child ejected from a vehicle in an accident now has a memorable name and face.
Jonathan Bauer was finally introduced on Friday as the humble hero who rescued the 2-year-old girl who was ejected from a pickup truck dangling over the rail on the Route 90 bridge on May 2 at a press conference.
Bauer, who throughout the week following the May 2 incident, preferred to remain anonymous, but was introduced at the press conference at the fire station last Friday afternoon with his wife Wendy and daughter Ava by his side. He was feted by a host of elected officials, first-responders, firefighter-paramedics and police officers involved in the incident.
The vice president of information systems at Atlantic General Hospital, Bauer was traveling with his 13-year-old daughter Ava west across the bridge when their vehicle was involved in the multi-vehicle crash. After checking on others around him involved in the crash, Bauer sprang into action.
Heroes see what needs to be done and do it, no matter the risk to themselves. Today’s idiots would prefer to pull out their cell phones to be able to post something on social media. He did what most couldn’t and/or wouldn’t do and he saved a life!
No coverage from MSM , I guess because they were white .
This is what America is all about. PEOPLE HELPING PEOPLE and not requiring any praise or expecting any thing in return.
This person needs to praised by ever person. This includes these self centered Socialist SNOWFLAKES who only cares about themselves.
Have not heard or seen anything from ADOLPH HOGAN. Must be because it happened on the EASTERN SHORE.
