A good Samaritan jogging by a California home stopped to alert a family that their house was on fire and risked his safety to save their pets.
Courtney Polito remotely answered her doorbell camera to find a stranger alerting them to smoke coming from their home. She gave the unnamed hero the code to get into their home and he went inside to get their pets out of the house.
He rescued their two dachshunds, rabbit, and cat. The family says if not for the kind stranger, they would have lost everything. Because of his quick actions, the blaze was largely contained to the garage. "The fire department said 10 more minutes and the house would have been gone.”
