Nelson Fonangwan, a 16-year-old boy from Southampton, England is a local hero after he saved the life of a toddler trapped inside a burning home. Here's what happened: Fonangwan was awaken by the screams of his neighbor whose child was locked inside of her burning house. She had accidentally locked herself outside while cooking, and her 2-year old was still inside. Fonangwan came to the rescue by smashing his way into the house, and running through thick black smoke to rescue the child. Soon after, firefighters arrived and put out the fire. Had he not rescued the child when he did, the child could have easily died quickly from smoke inhalation or burns.
