In front of a shop in Puebla, Mexico.

A clerk is working while moving goods.

Suddenly, a child appears from behind and runs toward the road.

A man who spotted this immediately gave chase, and at the moment a vehicle rapidly approached the child, he dramatically grabbed and saved the child.

By a split second, the vehicle stopped, and though the child and the man fell, they did not sustain major injuries.

The man was praised as a "civic hero" and reportedly received a reward from the store where he worked.
