Giuliani pulled over to help domestic violence victim before N.H. crash, police confirm

Giuliani, a passenger in a vehicle driven by Theodore Goodman, was flagged down by a woman on the side of the road Saturday night who said she was a victim of a domestic violence incident. Goodman reported the incident to New Hampshire State Police just after 9 p.m., and both men remained with the woman until troopers arrived and took statements.
