Local police hailed his actions as "heroic" -- as the man saved one of the kids by jumping with her out of a second-story window.
According to local police, they responded to reports of a house fire and, by the time they got there, found the home totally engulfed in flames. Just six minutes after they arrived, officers witnessed a man jump through the window of the home's second story with a 6-year-old child they were told was still inside.
Bostic said he didn't call 911 when he drove past the fire because he"didn’t want to waste time trying to find someone who could call it in" and"knew he had to act." After yelling inside from the back door and receiving no response, he"decided to go in" and found four occupants who ranged in age from 1-18. According to"His yells of warning roused them from their sleep, and he helped them escape from the house," say police.
