Julie Callaghan was severely injured when attempting to save Matthew Jarvis from an oncoming train on May 26, 2018. Jarvis was in his wheelchair, which was stuck in the train tracks on Broadway Street, and Callaghan was not able to free him.

She was left with lifelong injuries and her right hand had to be partly amputated. She has since been officially commended for her brave actions that day.
