Autry to the rescue

It was a Thursday evening, May 14, during the powerful rainstorm.

I drove my car right into a huge flood of water on Millbrook and Copper avenues. My car died, and I proceeded to panic because I thought I would have to swim to safety.

Out of the blue, who came to rescue me but former Mayor Alan Autry.

I thank him so much for saving the day and continuing to be an involved citizen.

Diana Minas, Fresno
