For two precarious hours, tow-truck operator Steve Matchett meticulously worked to lift a 14-tonne tractor-trailer, knowing that one small slip would mean death for the 36-year-old mother of two trapped underneath.
Adrenalin gripped his body as he weighed the risks in lifting the massive truck that minutes earlier, had toppled over on Highway 403, crushing Edyta Tobiasz’s car.
