Two Austin police officers have received rewards after they heroically ran towards a vehicle fire to save a man who had a medical emergency.

Officers Chandler Carrera and Eddie Pineda responded to a call at an apartment complex in Austin on Monday afternoon of a vehicle on fire. The officers arrived and found a truck parked in a parking spot, engulfed in flames with the driver still inside the vehicle.

Officer Pineda broke the truck's window to open the vehicle's door while Officer Carrera grabbed a fire extinguisher and attempted to put out the flames. Once the door was open, both officers were able to grab the man and pull him from the burning vehicle before it was completely engulfed in flames.

According to the Austin American-Statesman, the unknown man from the truck was sent to the hospital with potentially life-threatening smoke inhalation injuries. While we don't know who the man is, we do know who the two hero officers are who rescued him that day. And the internet is thirsting after them.

The Austin Police Department put up a picture on their Facebook of the two officers posing with Assistant Chief Robin Henderson after accepting the chief’s coin of recognition for their heroic actions that day. And the comments were nice, congratulating them for a great job and thanking them for keeping their community safe.

But on a picture posted on the Austin American-Statesman's Instagram has women thirsting hard for the officers.

No word on whether or not Officer Chandler Carrera and Eddie Pineda are single but if they are, there are plenty of women who are ready to assume the position.
