360 video: Ride along with a 5-ton truck rescuing Harvey victims

Brothers Brad and Adam Morris bought a 5-ton truck on Craigslist to help with rescues in Houston.

The truck was nicknamed 'The Punisher' by its previous owner.

By Tuesday night, the brothers were in Houston, along with David Couch, their brother-in-law, to help pull people out of the floodwaters.

Along with their brother-in-law David Couch, The brothers worked with local law enforcement, driving through 5-foot-high water to rescue people and pets, including pit bulls, cats, parakeets and hedgehogs.

Asked about their motivation, Brad Morris said he couldn’t sit around just watching people suffer. “It’s that Texas pride, I guess.”
