Crash drama as man suffers heart attack at wheel (UK)

"Pensioner Ernie Webster leapt to the rescue after he spotted a passing driver suffer a heart attack behind the wheel of his car. But little did the 71-year-old city man realise he was going to the rescue of one of his drinking pals as he made a brave leap for the handbrake, which ended in his leg being run over by the out-of-control car. And today he was anxiously awaiting news of friend Billy Blackburn, who remained critically ill in hospital after yesterday's drama, which unfolded outside the Windmill pub in Aylsham Road, Mile Cross, where they are both regulars." - Norwich Evening News
