12 YEAR OLD ESCAPES BLAZE

BREAKING NEWSA house fire on West River Road South today could have had tragic results if not for a concerned citizen.

William Worcester was driving by the home when he first saw smoke coming from the back of the house. When he looked closer he could see the flames. Worcester parked his truck and ran up to the house pounding on the windows and doors wanting to alert people in the house. “I looked through the side window and I could see a young boy inside the house trying to get out. I was yelling at him to go around to the front door but there was a bunch of clothes and junk blocking that doorway.” The young man began trying other escape routes but couldn’t find any, Worcester yelled at the child to go to the front door and start clearing a path. The young man did and cleared the doorway, Worcester was there to help him get out but the young man went back inside to get his dog. Worcester went in and helped retrieve the animal getting everyone out safely.
