JASPER COUNTY, Ga. — A Jasper County teen was reunited with an EMT who helped save her life 13 years ago. FOX 5 viewers provided information that led Alyssa Haskew to the moment she’s waited more than a decade for: to say thank you to Scott Thomas.

Haskew, 19, had been searching for the paramedic since he helped save her life when she was six years old. Alyssa still has the scar from when she was pulled underneath her family’s car after it was knocked out of gear.

“He stayed there with me, he held my hand when they sewed up my face,” she told FOX 5 last week. After the story aired, Scott Thomas said that his phone started to ring off the hook.
