Lorry Driver Tells How He Helped Man Escape Dublin Fire
- On Wednesday, 25 June 2025, lorry driver Tomasz Zareba reversed his truck close to a burning four-storey building on Granby Row, Dublin, enabling a person stranded near a third-floor window to escape safely.
- Zareba, delivering groceries for Eurospar nearby, spotted thick smoke and flames and decided to position his lorry safely so the man could jump onto its roof instead of risking the footpath below.
- After the man jumped to safety on the lorry roof, other victims either escaped or were treated at the scene, with Dublin Fire Brigade sending six fire engines to control the blaze and three people taken to hospital.
- A witness remarked that the man had prevented a painful death, while Zareba explained that he believed it was safer for the individual to climb onto the lorry rather than remain on the footpath. Meanwhile, firefighters continued their efforts to extinguish the blaze.
- Following the rescue, Zareba waited for the fire brigade before leaving and finishing his deliveries, with officials noting that an investigation into the incident is ongoing.
