3-Year-Old Boy Runs Into Grandmotherâs Burning Apartment Complex, Saves Peppa Pig DVDs
Three-Year-Old toddler Kain Harrison of Bunsontown, Indiana is being hailed as a hero after courageously running into a burning Woody Acres apartment complex toÂ wake his 52-year-old grandmother, Sandra Clemens, who was asleep during the blaze.Witnesses say the boy had been playing outside in the snow, building an igloo with three homeless men, when they noticed smoke pouring from the roof of the building in which he had been staying with his grandmother. Harrison had been staying at the home following his motherâs arrest for possession and intent to distribute heroin inside an elementary school.Leroy Johnson, 62, one of the homeless men the boy had befriended, said that once everybody saw smoke and flames, they knew it was too late to run inside.âI been on this here Earth for a long time, longer than I can remember, and I never seen anything like that in my damn life!â Johnson said. âThat little Kain, I tell ya that boy is something else, you know like Batman or something. It is not normal. Anyway Lil K-Roo took off running and we just let him go. He ran inside, at this point theÂ flames were flying out the damn windows, so we thought, well he is cooked.ââFew minutes go by, and then I tell ya, by the grace of the good Lord up in the mountains, here he comes strutting out,Â an armful of DVDs,â said the other homeless man, Gary Shidder. âFor real, he ran in there and got his damned ole Peppa Pig DVDs. That boy is something else, he derserves a Purple Heart or something ya know?â Johnson said as he remained engaged in describing the wild scene.Police say that Clemens, who was a sound sleeper, was not able to make it out of the apartment, and was killed. The Peppa Pig DVDs were saved, and according to reports, still play fine.
