Heating and air mechanic Shane St. Pierre, 29, was on the job in late July at a Raleigh, N.C., apartment complex when he suddenly found himself witnessing a brawl between a Raleigh police officer and a man who had just assaulted several people at the complex with a large rock.
The 10-year ARS/Rescue Rooter employee, who also serves as a lay minister in his free time, immediately jumped in to help the struggling officer subdue and handcuff the man, who was charged with two misdemeanors and a felony for assaulting the officer and others.
