Firefighter Catches Toddler Tossed From Balcony During Fire
January 15, 2018
It was heart-stopping drama as a toddler was tossed from a burning building in Georgia and into the arms of a firefighter. It happened in Decatur on January 3 as firefighters were scrambling to save a family of eight children trapped in an apartment. The toddler was tossed off a rescue ladder by her dad and was caught upside down by Captain Scott Stroup, who twisted his knee making the catch. Stroup wasn’t the only firefighter making heroic catches on that fateful day.
