Man saves 5 from house fire; jumps out window to save girl

LAFAYETTE, Ind. (AP) — An Indiana man who ran into a burning home and saved five people, including a 6-year-old girl he jumped out of a second-floor window with, says he’s no hero and the serious injuries he suffered in the dramatic rescue were “all worth it.” Twenty-five-year-old Nick Bostic of Lafayette was driving on July 11 in the northwestern Indiana city when he saw a house in flames, stopped and ran inside to alert its residents. Four children were with an 18-year-old sister, who got three of her siblings out but told Bostic one child was missing. Bostic tells WLFI-TV he searched until he found the child. He then punched out a second-floor window and jumped from it with the girl. He suffered serious injuries while the girl had a small cut to her foot.
