The Marine veteran who used a handy nearby pickup to transport the wounded during last week's mass shooting has been given a new truck by an Arizona car dealership,

The 29-year-old vet, who served two tours in Iraq before being honorably discharged in 2011, helped his friends, girlfriend, and dozens of strangers climb a fence to escape the kill zone before commandeering a nearby pickup to take the wounded to a hospital.

"It was an extended cab and had a long bed. I didn’t plan for that. It was a series of fortunate events," he told the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

With terrified victims crammed in the Chevy Silverado's crew cab and loaded into the bed, Winston made two trips between the hospital and the festival site and rescued an estimated 15-20 people.
