Eddie Hamilton - a Good Samaritan in DeKalb County, Georgia

Eddie Hamilton

On September 1st, 2014, just before 8:00 a.m., Eddie Hamilton, a resident of DeKalb County, Georgia, noticed that the home of one of his neighbors was on fire.

He heard kids screaming at a window and was able to bust it out and pull a 2 year old boy and a 10 year old girl to safety.

But one 17 year old boy was still inside. Eddie entered the house which was full of smoke from ceiling to floor. He could barely see and could barely breathe. He ran to the window twice to get some air and then crawled back further inside the house again.

He pulled the 17 year old to the window and firefighters were able to pull the young man outside. This teenager was in critical condition at the time of this posting. The other two kids suffered only minor injuries.

Pray for these kids, that they are alright. Pray for the injured 17 year old.

God bless Eddie Hamilton. He is a Good Samaritan.

God bless all who step up and who come to the aid of others in distress. They are the true heroes of the modern era. Amen.
