‘Law & Order: SVU’ Star Mariska Hargitay Saves Two Disabled Pedestrians During NBC Interview

“Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” star Mariska Hargitay and “Today” anchor Willie Geist assisted two disabled pedestrians during an interview near a Manhattan courthouse just before Thanksgiving.

A Page Six insider described the scene as,

“like an episode of Law & Order.”

First, a woman with a cane fell in a crosswalk, and Geist helped her up and escorted her across the street. Moments later, a man in an electric wheelchair lost control when a wheel came off.

The source said,

“Mariska and Willie rushed to his aid, and the cameraman, too. Willie and the guy with the camera hoisted the man up in his chair while Mariska fixed the wheel.”

A Today spokesperson confirmed the incident, explaining that Geist and Hargitay were filming for an interview airing on January 12, 2025.
