He said that his Grandpa, George Epp, is just laying in the drivers seat and he couldn’t wake him up.
The little boy knew something wasn’t right, found his Grandpa’s cell phone and called 9-1-1.
The boy was able to tell the operator what was wrong and where he was guiding emergency personnel to his location on the side of the road.
The Grandfather remains in the hospital undergoing several tests.
