It's a remarkable video you have to see to believe.

Reports say the elderly driver of the car who crashed into the pump on June 3 was having a diabetic episode. 

Once the elderly man was out of harm's way, Vescio had to warn people to move away from the scene because the officer had ammunition in his car. Thankfully, The Journal News reports none of it exploded from the heat.

NBC reports there were several injuries from the fire.

"Four cars were damaged, six people were hurt in this, but their injuries were not considered life threatening. ... Thank goodness for that off-duty officer." (Via NBC)

And while Vescio is being hailed a hero, he joked with The Journal News he's still getting treated with no respect by his coworkers.
