Bus driver rescues man from train tracks
Ricardo Valencia comes to the aid of injured Adam Baca with train approaching

 

DEMING >> A Luna County Corre Caminos bus driver on his daily route Tuesday saved a man from certain death.

 

Ricardo Valencia was driving on East Rail Road Boulevard, taking a route he makes multiple times every day. It was 8 a.m., Valencia's first run the morning.

 

"I saw someone laying down at the tracks over my left shoulder as I drove past," Valencia said. "There was a man down on the tracks and not moving."
