GOOD SAMARITAN HELPS TEENAGER HIT BY DRUNK DRIVER
Donation protected
My name is Timie Yancey and my newly 16-year-old son, Hudson Yancey, was hit by a drunk driver at 5:45 am on April 10, 2023. Hudson was on his way to work out before school when a drunk driver hit him from behind (when he was stopped at a redlight) in Hot Springs, Arkansas. Hudson was terrified, very hurt and didn't know what to do.... that's when Cole stepped up. Cole worked at the Citgo gas station that Hudson stopped at every morning to get a drink and snack before crossfit, and when he saw Hudson was hurt he didn't think - he acted. Cole called 9-1-1, helped Hudson find his phone so he could call us (his parents), and he kept him calm telling him everything would be okay. He did everything I wish as a parent I could have done - but I wasn't there yet. I made a facebook post on April 8th simply looking to find Cole - our angel - but turns out Cole has been a ROCK to many other people in his life .... the praises for Cole continue to roll in on my facebook post. Cole is truly AN AMAZING HUMAN. He does for others and expects nothing in return. Cole no longer works at Citgo ... so I'm starting this go-fund me to help Cole in the meantime, while he looks for another job. Did I mention he has a newborn baby girl, born April 1st. The world needs more COLES..... I'm happy to have met him, and I am determined to be a COLE for someone someday when they need it too. Let's all spread love and ... #TheColeEffect #LiveLikeCole
