Hawaii Governor Josh Green provides medical aid to injured people at the site of a crashed vehicle


Hawaii Governor Josh Green, who is also a doctor, was one of the people who stopped to help when his security service spotted an upside-down vehicle in a lava field on Thursday as he was going to a Big Island event.

Before becoming governor, Green was an emergency physician in rural areas of the Big Island.

“He was upside down in a completely wrecked van,” Green told Hawaii News Now of the driver. “It looks like he launched himself about 50 to 60 feet in the air and down the ravine, so his car was destroyed and we were able to get him out the front windshield, clear a lot of rocks and seven or eight citizens with me, we just took this guy out.”

The man, who was wearing a seatbelt, had a few cuts and bruises and appeared to be fine, Green said.

Green then spoke at a blessing ceremony for Waikoloa Solar and Storage.
