Two Camp Lejeune Marines pulled a man from his burning SUV after the victim was involved in a three-vehicle crash at the top of a bridge.
Cpl. David Qualls, 22, and Cpl. Nathan Bryson, 21, were leaving Camp Lejeune Friday morning when they pulled up to a traffic jam on the Highway 172 bridge.
They said they heard people yelling for fire extinguishers. That was when they realized a car was on fire at the top of the bridge. The Marines ran toward the top of the bridge and saw a three-car crash.
Inside the burning vehicle was 54-year-old Larry Flesher, a Camp Lejeune contractor from New Hanover County, according to Camp Lejeune spokesman Nat Fahy.
A Highway Patrol trooper said Flesher was headed north across the bridge toward Camp Lejeune when he crossed the center line and struck a vehicle. A third vehicle heading north across the bridge toward Camp Lejeune was also involved.
