Police in Cheektowaga, New York have issued a note of appreciation to a man who during a historic blizzard on Christmas Eve led dozens of stranded people to shelter at a school, which he broke into in order to shepherd them inside to safety.
The Cheektowaga Police Department said in statement Friday that they have identified—and hailed as a hero—the man who broke a window to get into Pine Hill School in Buffalo, New York, to make sure 24 people stuck in the freezing cold could get inside for warmth.
