Three East Lansdowne Volunteer Firefighters made the 950-mile roundtrip last weekend to pick up 21-year-old Samantha Rementer.
The Marietta College senior had suffered a head injury last month in a fall. After multiple surgeries, she got caught in the middle of a dispute between the hospital and her insurance company.
Rementer's family tells the Delaware County Daily Times the insurance company wouldn't discharge her without ambulance transport but her insurance company didn't think she needed an ambulance to get to a rehabilitation facility near her home.
So the firefighters stepped in, making the trip for the cost of gas.
The Rementer family says Samantha is recovering well.
