CHICAGO (WLS) -- A Chicago-area driver wants to thank the Illinois Department of Transportation employee who came to her rescue after she got a flat tire on the Stevenson Expressway.
Laurie Swigart said a Chicago police officer called an IDOT minuteman for her when she got a flat, and about 30 minutes later the minuteman showed up and got her off Interstate 55 and into a nearby Target parking lot at Damen Avenue and 33rd Street.
She said the minuteman continued to help her get back on the road to home.
