Grandson Saves Grandpa From Runaway Car on Mullens Hill
A Mullens coal miner and his grandson Orville Lifty Jr. narrowly escaped tragedy when a car rolled downhill toward a 20 to 30 foot bank. The boy, frightened but quick, opened the door and set the emergency brake as the grandfather fought to stop the vehicle with his bare hands. Both credit fate and the boy’s actions for saving their lives.
