Not many people know, but a civilian passing through that reported this fire also made a rescue. A elderly lady was on the 1st floor and the civilian passing through went in the smoke filled house and pulled the lady to safety. The civilian was merited for going above and beyond the call of duty. So there is people out there that care. I was stuck on the ambulance that night.
