ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — A man whose gutsy and quick action saved a family from its worst nightmare is winning praise and offers of help from people across the country. Antonio Diaz Chacon, 24, used his truck to chase a man after he allegedly snatched a 6-year-old girl and fled with her in his van, rescuing the child when the vehicle crashed. Now, police and reporters have received calls from people requesting an address to send gift cards, money and even donations for a college savings fund for his two children.
