Footage of one kind stranger’s good deed has gone viral after it was shared to Facebook.
wxii12 reports Bilal Quintyne, 24, of Smyrna, Georgia, was headed out for a morning run with a friend when he saw a woman in a wheelchair stranded on the side of a main road.
The engine of her electric wheelchair had died.
“She asked if I could call for help and I said, ‘I’m in good shape. Where is your house? I’ll take you myself,’” Quintyne, an amateur boxer, said.
He began pushing the woman down the road, in the midst of 90-degree heat.
Video of Quintyne’s act of kindness has been shared nearly 70,000 times and viewed more than three million times.
“God blessed me with an able body. So WE pulled her home. A mile or not I wouldn’t go home until she was home. Period,” he captioned the video.
When they got the woman back to her house, Quintyne discovered she had been on her way to the store.
“I offered to go food shopping for her, but she wouldn’t allow me,” he said. “She was crying, very grateful, and said that many people had driven by without stopping to help.”
