To the rescue in the middle of the night. A good Samaritan pulled a driver from the burning wreckage of his pickup truck after he crashed into car sales business in Cumberland County, New Jersey, early Friday morning.

The fiery wreck took place at North Delsea Drive and West Garden Road in Vineland around 1:40 a.m., Vineland police said.

Police arrived to find a 2018 Dodge Ram and part of the AG Auto Group building "fully engulfed" in flames, police said.

Police said a 44-year-old from Newfield, New Jersey was behind the wheel:

"... For an unknown reason his vehicle ran off the road to the right striking a guardrail while still continuing northbound, reentering the roadway, and striking a traffic light standard at the intersection with West Garden Road. The vehicle then crossed over the intersection into the business of AG Auto Group located at 2332 N Delsea where the vehicle caught fire and as a result fully engulfed the business."

The driver was rescued thanks to someone else. "Following the crash, the driver was removed from the vehicle by a good Samaritan bystander," police wrote.

The driver was taken to the hospital where he was listed in critical, but stable condition with "serious injuries" Friday, police said.

As SkyForce10 hovered over AG Auto Group just before 7 a.m., you could see the truck still partially in the outer walls of a building with a street sign knocked down onto the parking lot. It appeared that the truck and building were both charred.

No charges were announced late Friday morning as the crash remained under investigation.

Police asked anyone with information to call Vineland police's Traffic Safety Unit at 856-691-4111, ext. 4350.
