The father of a 15-year old girl who was airlifted to Toronto last week following a collision is thanking Greater Sudbury Police Officer, Enzo Rizzi for saving his daughters life.

The 15-year old was in a vehicle with her grandfather when the vehicle hit the back of a transit bus at Elm and Regent Street.

That was Kevin Louis who says his daughter went into a coma but has made leaps and bounds in her recovery and remains in Toronto.

He hopes the city and police service commend the officer for saving his daughters life.
