'Unbelievable': Man pulls teens from burning car outside his Rhode Island home

EAST PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) — A Rhode Island man said he couldn't believe his eyes when he opened the door and saw two severely damaged cars in front of his house Monday night.

"We heard a couple of bangs and some popping sounds, then the lights went out," Peter Rocha told Nexstar's WPRI. "It was just unbelievable, and it was literally so close to home."

Rocha, who lives in East Providence, said he immediately sprung into action as soon as he saw flames "kicking up" around one of the vehicles.
