Stefan “The Foosh” Cabezas serves as the technical director for KFI AM 640 shows The Tim Conway Show and Later with Mo Kelly.
Cabezas is recovering in the ICU after being pulled from a burning car by three good Samaritans following a crash on the 105 Freeway last week.
The accident occurred when Cabezas was attempting to change lanes and was cut off by another driver, sending his vehicle into a guardrail before it flipped and caught fire. His mother said his arm was outside the window during the rollover, leaving him trapped as flames spread. A fourth bystander applied a tourniquet after he was freed.
Police say without their actions, Cabezas would not have survived.
“We went three hours yesterday, panicking and trying to figure out where he was,” KFI host Tim Conway Jr. told KTLA. “I thought he was gone. I had the worst feeling in the world.”
Cabezas underwent surgery at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center and remains on a ventilator after a second operation. His family says more surgeries are expected.
Friends and relatives are now searching for the individuals who saved his life so they can be thanked in person. Outside of his radio duties, Cabezas drives for Uber, and his injuries will keep him out of work for an extended period. A GoFundMe page has been created to assist with medical expenses.
