In the small town of Caldwell, Idaho, there’s hardly anything you can do without catching the attention of someone. So, when Erica Tovar was driving down the street and witnessed a group of teen boys hastily jump out of their vehicle and approach Jose Gomez, she hurriedly recorded the incident.
The five boys had reportedly spotted Gomez strolling along the sidewalk with his walker before pulling over, exiting the vehicle, and running over to the senior citizen. It was then that Tovar captured their deeds on camera, intent on getting them identified and bringing attention to their actions.
Despite using the aid of his walker, Gomez had fallen on the concrete and injured his leg, which the teens had apparently witnessed. As such, the boys pulled over and exited the car, rushing over to the elderly gentleman. They helped Gomez to his feet, escorted him home arm-in-arm, and cleaned up and cared for the man’s wounds.
Gomez had reportedly fallen just before the boys pulled their car up beside him. Besides hurting his pride, the senior citizen suffered a bloodied and bruised knee. With no way to get up and walk home without injuring himself again, Gomez was relieved when the most unlikely heroes came to his aid.
They were high schoolers Victor Ornel, Isaac Hernandez, Diego Ramirez, Devon Ornelles, and Josh Sorg.
He was incredibly grateful when they offered to help him up and take him to his apartment, ensuring that he didn’t fall again. “I was just falling down, I don’t know what happened,” Gomez said. “They picked me up. I was walking just right, and then sadly, I went down, and they come up and say, ‘Hey, want us to take you home?’ And I said, ‘Okay, let’s go.’ It made me feel good.”
Neither Gomez nor his secret helpers knew that Tovar was recording their every move. Once she shared their selfless deed on Facebook, the post went viral, prompting an outpouring of praise. However, the boys insist that they didn’t want the recognition and were merely doing what is right.
