A Beaver County family escaped a fire thanks to their heads-up 10-year-old.
The family's home in North Sewickley Township is burnt from the blaze, which started around 2 p.m. on Saturday. Levi Baker first noticed smoke after getting out of the shower.
"I was in the bathroom and I just saw smoke coming through the door and flashing lights," Baker said.
Instead of freezing in fear, the 10-year-old boy went about warning his family, allowing them all to escape.
"I was happy that I was alive, so I was just thinking on the positive and not the negative," Baker said.
"He's stoic," said the boy's mother, Bobbi Asbury.
"He was amazingly smart beyond his years, and all he could think about was his family today. I'm Still in shock, it's amazing to really put it in perspective that he had the wherewithal to understand. He's the hero."
Fifteen days from Christmas, the family has nothing left. But they're all alive thanks to a brave 10-year-old who didn't panic when many adults would have.
