Barbers save young girl from wandering into busy intersection [Video]

EAST HARTFORD, Conn. (WFSB/Gray News) – Two barbers helped save a young girl from wandering into the middle of an intersection.

The barbers said the child was just seconds from walking into traffic at an intersection in East Hartford, Connecticut.

“It was a quick reaction thing. We weren’t going to ask no questions. We weren’t going to see what was going on. We were just going to move and that was it,” Rafael Santana said.

Santana’s barber station sits right next to the window at Look Sharp Barbershop, and he thanks God for seeing what he saw on April 12.

Santana said around 11:00 a.m. that morning, he looked outside and noticed a young girl walking in the middle of the road.

“I looked back and I didn’t see anybody. I didn’t see anyone behind her,” Santana said.
