DENHAM SPRINGS, LA: Firefighter Recalls Fiery Rescue

Advocate staff photo by JIM MUSTIAN — Stacie Massey, who was pulled from her burning vehicle by rescuers after a crash near the Magnolia Bridge in Denham Springs, displays her Bible. The Bible was partly burned but Massey was spared serious injury thanks to the efforts of off-duty St. George Firefighter Jonathon Dixon and other rescuers.

“I’m a fireman on duty and off duty,” said Jonathon Dixon, 25, of the St. George Fire Department. “Just because I don’t have a uniform on does not mean that I’m not a fireman still.”

The crash happened about 7 a.m. Wednesday on La. 64 near La. 1019 after a motorist, Stacie Massey, lost consciousness and ran under an 18-wheeler on Magnolia Bridge Road, State Police said. Massey, in an interview at her Denham Springs home, said she blacked out from a migraine and had no recollection of her rescue.
