Rachael Bullous, a trentbarton bus driver, has been reunited a victim of a hammer attack who she helped.
She was driving her mainline bus from Bingham past Trent Bridge when she saw Dirk Vervoots who had been attacked with a hammer and pushed into the river.
Rachael says: “I saw him stumbling across the road and I knew I had to get out and help, so I parked up and explained the situation to my passengers.
“I got them a replacement bus and went to help Dirk. As soon as I got to him he collapsed. He was bleeding from his head so I wrapped my jumper around his head and then we waited together until an ambulance arrived.”
Dirk was attacked in July and was reunited with his rescuer so he could say thanks and present Rachael with a bouquet.
