    Mark La Cras saves two lives.

    Former Eagle saves two lives in car crash tragedy


    WEST Coast premiership forward Mark LeCras has come to the rescue of two people moments before a third died in a horrifying car crash in Perth.

    LeCras was travelling in the opposite direction when he saw a car veer from the road into bushland on the Great Eastern Highway on Wednesday night.

    Rushing to the scene, LeCras helped in pulling two people from the front of the car but was unable to save the third from the rear before the car caught fire, according to multiple reports in Perth.

    The two passengers who were rescued were taken to Royal Perth Hospital and were in a stable condition on Thursday night.

    LeCras booted 441 goals from 219 games for the Eagles, claiming his maiden premiership in his final match last season.

    Wow, good one Mark. It's not often easy to stop and do the correct thing in a situation like that so a huge pat on the back for the Frenchman!

    Probably scarred for life seeing what happened to the third person. No good deed goes unpunished
    If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

    Sadly that's probably true. A lot of "what ifs" about whether he could've saved all three, rather than focusing on the fact that saving two is immeasurably better than saving none.
