An 11-year-old boy saved a choking classmate this month and then sprung into action a second time that day when he escorted an elderly woman from a burning home, Oklahoma officials said.
For most people, let alone a child, the selflessness Davyon Johnson displayed on Dec. 9 amounts to more than a lifetime of heroics.
“The Muskogee Public Schools Board of Education recognized sixth-grader Davyon Johnson during the board meeting Tuesday night,” the statement said. “Davyon performed the Heimlich maneuver on a classmate on December 9 and that evening helped a woman from her house that was on fire. Muskogee Police Department and Muskogee County Sheriff’s Office presented Johnson with a certificate denoting him as an honor member of their force.”“He didn’t really want recognition.
Students crowded around the child, Johnson said, and “my son pushed everyone out the way and went and did the Heimlich maneuver.” But as Davyon was moving toward her, Johnson said, an elderly woman with a walker stepped out of the front door.She said she never feared for her son’s life, even though he put himself in harm’s way.
