A guy is hailing his elderly father-in-law as a hero for his valiant efforts as they desperately fled the Pacific Palisades wildfire… especially because Parkinson’s makes it difficult for him to move.
Aaron Samson discussed their harrowing situation on CBS Mornings Thursday, explaining that after witnessing smoke and fire near his 83-year-old father-in-law’s house, he knew they had to evacuate. There was just one problem: they didn’t have a car.
