NEWNAN, Ga. — An employee at a Newnan Chick-fil-A is being called a hero after she saved a little girl from choking on a coin in the drive-thru.

Liliana Leahy was in the drive-thru line ordering her food on her phone when she heard her daughter, Theia, choking.

When she realized what was happening, she screamed for help and an employee, 18-year-old Mia Velez, came to the rescue.

Velez performed the Heimlich maneuver on Theia and a British pound came out.
