A young Chick-fil-A manager was captured on surveillance video, leaping out the drive-thru window after a scene in a nearby car caught his attention. After spotting a child in the backseat, the manager realized something was wrong and flew into action. Now, his own heartbreaking back story has emerged.

Logan Simmons, a 19-year-old manager at a Georgia Chick-fil-A, was inside the Flowery Branch location where he works one second and leaping out the drive-thru window and into a nearby car the next. His actions are giving us all another reason to love “America’s favorite restaurant chain.” But, there’s a reason Logan was in the right place at the right time, and it’s a heartbreaking story…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

Logan’s ordinary Tuesday shift took a turn when he was standing near the open drive-thru window and overheard panicked screams coming from outside the restaurant. What captured the teen’s attention was a frantic mother, yelling that her 6-year-old son’s seat belt was choking him. At that moment, Logan’s instincts kicked in and spurred him to action…

Surveillance camera video captured Logan climbing out the drive-thru window and running to get to the vehicle on the lot. As he reached the car in the drive-thru lane, Logan jumped inside and found the boy turning red in the backseat as his airway was restricted by the belt, which had somehow become tangled around his neck, all while the child’s frightened mother begged for help.

“You could see he was turning red and losing pigmentation in his face,” Logan recalled. Thankfully, the manager was prepared to save the day. Using his pocketknife, the Hall County teen snipped the belt and freed the child, saving the boy’s life. But, Logan was initially very nonchalant about the entire ordeal. “He’d been home for a couple of hours, and he said nonchalantly, ‘I saved a kid’s life today,’ and I was like ‘What?’” Logan’s mother Teri Simmons recalled.

For Logan, his efforts were just all in a day’s work. “I just jumped out the window and ran straight down to the car,” Logan Simmons said. “I think it was the quickest option. It was right there, and I saw the other car right there,” he told WSB-TV.

“As soon as I realized what was going on, all I could think about was getting to the car as quickly as possible, so I jumped through the window. I’m still a little shocked by what happened but am grateful I was able to help,” Logan said. “I’m just so thankful everyone is okay,” he added in a statement provided by the restaurant chain, according to Inside Edition.

Logan Simmons has since been hailed a hero, receiving an outpouring of praise and support from the community, and rightfully so. “Everyone’s been cheering and shouting my name and asking me to come sit with them and stuff,” he said, adding that people have been making special trips to the local Chick-fil-A just to talk to him while he’s at work. “It’s been really nice,” he said. “I do feel like a hero.”

The boy’s mother also reportedly called Logan Simmons to thank him again, calling him a hero for saving her son’s life. Logan’s own mother is pretty impressed with her son too. “I’m amazed he didn’t panic. As his mother, I would have panicked. I’d be running around going, ‘Oh my gosh! What do we do?’” Teri Simmons admitted.

The bail application for three men accused of the brutal murders of Maria Makgato 47, and Lucia Ndlovu 34, has been postponed as the defense seeks access to a key statement from the farm owner. The three accused remain in custody while awaiting further legal proceedings after the hearing was delayed by the Polokwane Regional Court on Tuesday…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

The men are facing charges of murder after the bodies of Makgato and Ndlovu were allegedly thrown into a pigsty at a farm near Mankweng, Limpopo. The disturbing nature of the case has captured national attention with both local communities and the families of the victims seeking justice.

The bail hearing was postponed after the defense filed an appeal to access the statement of the farmer who owns the property where the alleged crime occurred. According to defense attorneys, this statement could provide critical information that may affect their clients’ legal strategy in applying for bail.

The farmer statement is a pivotal piece of evidence in understanding the events leading up to the deaths of the victims said the defense team. We believe it will play a crucial role in ensuring a fair trial and in determining whether our clients should be granted bail.

The prosecution however is expected to oppose the bail application citing the serious nature of the charges and concerns that the accused may flee or interfere with the investigation. They also pointed to the gruesome details of the murders, where the bodies were allegedly disposed of in a pigsty, which they argue reflects the extreme cruelty of the crime.

Community members and the victims families have expressed outrage over the bail application calling for the accused to remain behind bars. Outside the courtroom a small group of protestors gathered holding signs demanding justice for Makgato and Ndlovu. We want to see justice served for the families of these women. Their deaths have shocked us all said one protester outside the Polokwane courthouse.

The court has yet to announce a new date for the bail hearing, but the legal teams will return to court once the farmer statement is provided. Meanwhile the accused will remain in custody pending further proceedings.

The case has heightened public awareness about violence in rural areas particularly on farms, and has sparked calls for better safety measures in such isolated environments. Both law enforcement and local authorities are under pressure to resolve the case and bring closure to the grieving families.

As the investigation continues attention will focus on the outcome of the bail application and whether the defense access to the farmer statement will change the course of the case.

She felt the weight of the situation and questioned why it had to be her.

However, as the journey continued, Sergeant Bass’s intentions became clear. He felt a deep sense of responsibility to help people like Mandy, who were working hard to make ends meet.

In the case of North Carolinian Chelsea Banton, she wasn’t expected to see her third day.
