Brothers Honored for Saving Passengers from Fiery Crash

Two brothers from Buffalo Grove received commendations this week for their work in saving the lives of three people who were caught in a fiery crash.

Ken Hechtman and Daniel Hechtman were honored by Buffalo Grove Village President Jeff Braiman for the selflessness and bravery they displayed one April night when they happened upon a crash involving a semi-truck and a car carrying a mother and her young daughter.

The Hectmans, Braiman said, "[serve] as role models for all Buffalo Grove residents" through their actions that night and their ongoing efforts to raise money for two victims of the crash.
