A Toddler Is Tossed Out Of A Burning Building By The Father

A Toddler Is Tossed Out Of A Burning Building

A heroic father tossed his three-year-old son from a blazing building's second story. The toddler was caught by first responders on the ground, followed by his father, who had to jump to safety as well.

Both are in good health and have only minor injuries. The fire started in an apartment on the third floor of the apartment complex in New Jersey and quickly spread throughout the structure. The fire forced fifty individuals to flee their homes.

Around 8:15 a.m. on Monday, a three-alarm fire broke out on the second and third floors of the South Ridge Woods Apartment Complex.

Eight fire crews were dispatched to the area and were able to put out the fire before searching the structure.

The fire displaced around 50 people, according to Monmouth Junction Fire Chief Scott Smith, but it might have been worse.

"We were immediately confronted with really strong fire conditions, as well as reports of persons remaining inside," Smith said Monday.

"All of the residents were fortunate enough to escape the fire," he stated. "If this incident had occurred earlier in the morning, while people were still sleeping, the result could have been terrible."
