Survivors recount crash

Hero describes rescue

The Portland-area couple was pulled to safety from their burning pickup Monday just as it exploded in flames during rush-hour traffic on Interstate 5 south of Woodburn, according to Oregon State Police.

Fred and Claudine Stock, both 74, were rescued by Good Samaritans who stopped to help -- Merle Stutzman, 59, of Hubbard, and Nathaniel Merrill, 22, of Corvallis, said Recruit Trooper Jennifer Russell.
