Rockwall High Student is a Homecoming Hero After Saving Boy in Parade

(ROCKWALL, TX – Sept. 30, 2019) Tyra Winters is not your ordinary high school cheerleader. Not only can she tumble down the field while leading a crowd, she is a hero!

During the Rockwall High School homecoming parade, Tyra’s courage and leadership skills would be put to the test.

While she was in the parade, she heard someone yelling “HELP” and saw a boy choking on a piece of candy. Without hesitation, Tyra rushed over to the boy, performed the Heimlich maneuver until the candy dislodged.

Her courage and kind spirit saved the boy.

Thank you, Tyra!
