William Morejon is being called a hero for his actions of bravery to enter a burning home in the 1500 block of 53rd street in Hialeah Florida just after midnight Tuesday local time. William answered a telephone call from his girlfriend just after midnight telling him that she thought someone was trying to break into their home. William then told his girlfriend that the breaking windows was from a fire inside the home. Where was William at that time is not known. However he raced from wherever he was to the home where his 85 year old grandmother, his dog and his girlfriend were inside. William risked his life to first get his grandmother out of the home, then he returned to get his girlfriend and his pet dog out safe and sound before the local firefighters came to the home and put down the fire. The two ladies were taken to the Ryder Trauma Center for burns on her forearms and hands (Grandma) and smoke inhalation (Girlfriend), the dog was unharmed. The cause of the fire started in the living room according to Hialeah firefighters. William insists he is not a hero since his grandmother would have done the same thing to him if the shoe was on the other foot.

William has a good head above his shoulder due to his upbringing.
