A homeless man who happened to see an apartment on fire sprung into action and rescued two small children trapped inside during the late morning hours of Dec. 1, The Washington Post reported.
Anival Angulo jumped over a security gate and pulled up a steel security door in order to access the apartment. The 3-year-old girl and the 10-month-old baby were trapped inside, surrounded by billowing smoke. The dense smoke filled the apartment and left only one foot of visibility coming from the bottom of the floor, according to Las Vegas Fire & Rescue Public Information Officer Tim Szymanski, via a phone interview.
