Florida sheriff’s deputies rescue child from burning house

Sheriff’s deputies in Seffner, Florida rescued a child from a burning house on Thursday night.

When Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office deputies arrived at a home fully engulfed in flames at 10:48 p.m., neighbors were standing outside in the yard and yelled at the deputies, telling them that a child was still inside.

Deputies then entered the home by breaking a glass window, finding a 9-year-old boy inside, according to the sheriff’s department.

Deputy Kevin Reich and Deputy Alexander Maldonado asked the child to come as close to the window as possible, and they were able to grab him and pull him out of the window.
