Dramatic footage shows good Samaritan and police officer save a woman who drove into water while suffering a seizure

Wild video footage shows the dramatic moment a good Samaritan and police officer save a woman from drowning in the water.

Newly released body camera video shows the 12-year-old son of Jonquetta Winbush panicking as he flags down a police officer to rescue his mother. 

Winbush had suffered a seizure whilst driving in West Orange, Texas, and ended up plunging her vehicle into a body of water.

'She's having a seizure. She's sunk,' the little boy screamed as he pointed at where his mother was stuck in the water. 

After making sure the boy was safely tucked away in the police vehicle, the officer waded into the water towards the mother's sunken car.

The officer, along with a good Samaritan, managed to break into the car and rescue the woman. 

Epifanio Munguia was the good Samaritan who risked his life, along with the West Orange officers, to rescue the woman. 

Winbush's two children were in the car at the time of the wreckage, but they both managed to escape and cry for help.  

The incident took place in July - but Winbush is still in the ICU over three weeks later, though she has been taken off the ventilator and is now breathing on her own. 

Winbush's family members have expressed their gratitude to those who saved her.  

'After I saw her I was overwhelmed with emotions, so I messaged him and I want to personally thank you for being there for my niece and nephew and ultimately my sister, because he really helped save her life,' said Bevnisha Holman, Winbush's sister.

Holman has even stayed in touch with Munguia - who she says is invested in her sister's recovery. 

The good Samaritan even stopped by St. Elizabeth Hospital to visit her and check in on the family.

'It's good to know that attention is coming to it for the fact that we want Jonquetta to recover and people praying for her and possibly get her some more help after she recovers. So that's really what's on my mind,' Munguia said.
