  1. Recent news articles only (past 30 days)
  2. Title must match the headline or neutrally describe the content
  3. Avoid duplicates & spam (search before posting; batch minor updates).
  4. Be civil; no hate or personal attacks.
  5. No link shorteners
  6. No entire article in the post body

Yeah, first responders would break the window and drag the occupants out.

But from the article that nobody read, this was some guy from across the street and the car was already on fire. If he'd been able to pull the door open, he might have been able to drag somebody out. Even if the chances are that they were already dead, given it looked a pretty good crash.
