MURFREESBORO, TN : Heroes lift car off man pinned in horrific Rutherford County crash on Monday, 15th August, 2016

A man survived after being pinned underneath a car in a bad crash Monday in Rutherford County

Now his fiance is searching for the men who came to his rescue and lifted the car, saving her soon-to-be husband.

News 2 was able to track down one of the heroes, Zach McCan, who says the crash was a sound he has heard all too often.

“I just knew exactly what it was from the sound,” McCann said. “I heard almost no brakes, very short brake, and then a big thud, metal.”

McCann had just woken up from taking a nap, heard the crash, and ran outside to help.

“It was rolled over on its side, so the passenger side tires were right here,” he said. “It was laid sideways on the ditch.”

Four other men were already trying to lift the vehicle, a 2007 Cadillac, off the victim.

“[We] had to bend down, grabbed the car down here, and roll it off of him,” McCann said. “He was pinned under the passenger side door.”

It was a horrific crash involving two vehicles in the 2400 block of Dilton Mackin Road in Rutherford County around 3:30 p.m. Monday afternoon.

“It was pretty bad,” McCann told News 2.

Call it pure strength, but the men were determined to free the victim, 29-year-old Jason Shahan.
