A father-of-three has described how instinct kicked in as he rushed to the aid of a man who had been hit by a car.

Paul James, 36, of Upton Road, Worthing, helped the pedestrian who was knocked down in Terringes Avenue, Worthing, yesterday.

It is the second time Mr James has stepped in to help someone.

Speaking about the latest incident, Mr James, who works for a drainage company, said: “It happened right in front of us.

“It looked like the pedestrian stepped out from behind a parked vehicle.

“We put him into the recovery position and helped him until the ambulance arrived and the paramedics took over.

“Everything happened so quickly.”
