Sen. Bernie Sanders to the rescue.
It was just an ordinary day Wednesday when Sanders stepped outside his office for a break. But in that time, according to a Facebook post, he stopped a woman from getting hit by a car on her way to a guitar lesson. She thanked him with a selfie.

Apparently Sen. Sanders went for a walk by himself during a break on Wednesday, stopped a woman from getting hit by a car, and then came back to the office and didn’t tell anybody about it. His team found out about it on Facebook https://t.co/CB5N4Q1BFS

Washington Post reporter Jeff Stein tweeted that apparently Sanders went back to the office and didn’t say a word about the ordeal. His team found out about it later on Facebook.
