An Arizona Good Samaritan rescued a five-year-old boy with special needs who wandered into a busy intersection. And it was caught on traffic cameras.

Dakota McDonald was driving in Peoria when he noticed a small child walking down the middle of the street, then skipping right into an intersection. He rushed to scoop up the kid before he got into oncoming traffic. McDonald says as a father to a six-month-old at the time, his fatherly instincts kicked in. He gave the boy some Goldfish crackers and water he had in his truck while trying to figure out who the boy belonged to. 

The child was non-verbal and had wandered away from a nearby elementary school. McDonald was honored by police for his heroic action!
