A father who noticed that a car would hit his son running in Esenyurt, Istanbul, threw himself in front of the moving vehicle. While shouting to warn his son, the father fell to the ground due to the impact of the collision and was slightly injured. Those moments were captured second by second by the security camera.
The incident occurred yesterday evening in the Pınar neighborhood of Esenyurt. A family visiting neighbors for condolences intervened at the last moment to prevent their child from being run over. Five-year-old Ayaz Önal, who escaped from his mother's hand, wanted to run to his father. At that moment, the father noticed that a car was speeding down the street and would hit his son, so he ran towards his son without thinking. As the father shouted, little Ayaz froze in place, while the car, unable to stop, hit the father. Ersin Önal, who fell to the ground due to the impact of the accident, was slightly injured on his arm and hip, while those moments were captured second by second by the camera.
"WHEN I REALIZED IT WOULD HIT MY SON..."
Describing the moments of the incident, father Ersin Önal said, "We were going to a condolence visit with the neighbors. At that moment, my son Ayaz let go of his mother's hand and ran towards me. I saw a car speeding down the street. When I realized it would hit my son, I ran without hesitation. When I shouted, my son stopped, and the car hit me. I have a minor injury on my arm. Thank God nothing serious happened," he said.
