Our people in action.
There are seven very lucky people in Gloucester,
Massachusetts, thanks to the selfless actions of Waste Management
driver James Salvanelli.
It was in the early hours during his daily route
when Salvanelli came upon the scene of an overturned vehicle that
had caught fire—its seven occupants still inside. With no time
to spare, Salvanelli quickly pulled to the side of the road, grabbed
the fire extinguisher from his truck and went to work putting out
the flames. An off-duty policedetective who witnessed Salvanelli's
heroic actions said that the driver's quick action prevented highly
probable fatalities at the scene.
 The
operations commander of the Gloucester Police Department, Lieutenant
Joseph Aiello, extended his gratitude saying, "This department
wishes to extend to WM and Mr. Salvanelli our sincere thanks for
his fast thinking and selfless conduct."
