Man In Indiana Enters Home Burning In Flames & Saves Lives Of 5 Children Trapped Inside

A man in Indiana is being hailed as a hero by local officials after entering a home engulfed in flames last week and saving the lives of several children trapped inside the burning structure.

Nicholas Bostic, 25, was driving in Lafayette, Indiana, just after midnight on July 11 when he saw a house on fire, according to a news release from the Lafayette Police Department, and pulled into the home’s driveway.

Bostic was able to enter through a back door that was open and began to check if there was anyone in the home, according to the release.

As he went upstairs he found four children — ages ranging from one to 18 years old — asleep and woke them, helping them escape the home.

Once Bostic was able to get the children out of the house, he learned that a fifth child, a six-year-old girl, was still inside. Heading back in, he searched for the girl and when he heard crying, ultimately located her, police said.

Bostic was not able to find a way out on the main floor as the flames intensified, police said, and the two would be forced to jump out of a second-floor window to safety.

Bostic had to break the window with his hand to get it open, the release said.
