In a heartwarming incident, California firefighter

Ryan Lopez comforted a 4-year-old girl at a car crash near San Diego.

The accident involved multiple vehicles,

caused by a big rig crossing into oncoming traffic.

While injured individuals received medical attention,

Lopez, a father himself, spontaneously comforted the uninjured child.

He cradled her, provided water, and offered solace during the distressing situation,

emphasizing the importance of safety and comfort.

Lopez saw his actions as part of his duty as a first responder, noting that any of his colleagues would have done the same.

Sadly, the crash resulted in fatalities, including a mother and daughter.

A 6-year-old girl from one vehicle sustained serious injuries

, while the 4-year-old girl comforted by Lopez had minor injuries.

The public response highlighted the firefighter’s genuine kindness,

recognizing it as both a fatherly and heroic act, with many expressing their prayers and well-wishes for the accident’s victims.
