\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0FORT WORTH, Texas (KTVT<\/a>) — A woman is recovering after two community members helped save her when she was found frozen outside a South Fort Worth food mart during this week’s winter storm.<\/p>\n

The woman, known by locals as Bobbi, often stays near Evans Food Mart. While many unhoused residents found shelter as temperatures dropped, she remained outside overnight.<\/p>\n

Faris Hussain, a manager at the store, said another regular customer rushed in Thursday morning after spotting Bobbi on the ground.<\/p>\n

“When I heard her name, it was one of my good customers, so I instantly was like, ‘Hey man, no no no, there’s no way. We gotta go help her right now,'” Hussain said.<\/p>\n

Hussain ran outside and lifted her himself.<\/p>\n

“She felt like a rock, as stiff as a rock,” he said. “I mean, it was, when I picked her up, her entire body was just, it was like, no matter which way you picked her up, her body was going to stay the same form.”<\/p>\n

He carried her inside, where she slowly warmed up and began thanking the people around her. She told them she had been outside all night.<\/p>\n

The Fort Worth Fire Department confirmed crews responded to Evans Food Mart between 9 a.m. and 10 a.m., and paramedics took her to a hospital.<\/p>\n

Hussain said helping people in need is part of the store’s daily routine.<\/p>\n

“I don’t really consider myself a hero or nothing, but we just, we do this on a daily for our community,” he said. “Doing it once in a while, it’s not going to cut it. That’s just, you know, we do it on a daily for our daily customers all the time, every time.”<\/p>\n

Bobbi’s condition was unknown after being hospitalized. Hussain said he would share an update when he sees her again.<\/p>\n
