A supermarket employee in Illinois is being hailed a hero after sprinting across the store’s parking lot to save a baby who was strapped into a runaway shopping cart. Ben Mazur, a courtesy clerk at a Schnucks supermarket in Alton, was wrangling shopping carts on March 17 when he heard a car horn "repeatedly and frantically honking," Schnucks recounted in a recent Facebook post. "As it turns out, the owner of the car was trying to get someone’s attention because there was a runaway cart rolling down the store’s parking lot," according to the supermarket chain. "I stopped what I was doing and saved the baby," Mazur told Fox 2. "We have a slanted parking lot and carts can get rolling fast," said Alton Co-Manager Tom Moore on Facebook.
