Anthony Brooks who lives in Springfield Oregon is an example of being a person who cares for the welfare of his neighbors who were trapped inside of their home on Wednesday evening after a fire broke out in their home.
Anthony took action to rescue an elderly couple to get out of their burning home by saving the elderly lady first through the front door and then after he went inside the burning home to rescue the elderly man who is in the back of the home by taking him out through the backyard to safety even though Anthony admitted that the house fire smoke made it hard for him to see his way through.
Even though the other neighbors had contacted the local fire department, Anthony broke down the fence to rescue the cats and dogs who were trapped inside the burning home.
By the time Anthony rescued the cats and dogs, the Springfield Fire Department arrived to put out the fire which started in the garage and spread to the attic.
One of the dogs that was rescued by Anthony was taken to a local animal hospital for treatment of his injuries caused by the fire.
The condition of the elderly couple that Anthony rescued is not clear at this time.
The silver lining in the cloud is that there no major injuries in the fire that caused 50% damage.
Anthony did his duty to rescue the elderly couple and their pets since he realizes one day, his good deed will be repaid in the future.

I agree with you since it takes a lot of courage to enter a burning building to save lives.

You are right since firefighters have begged regular people not to play hero during a fire since the firefighters are trained to do rescues.
