BREAKING 'I went into autopilot:' Neighbor helps rescue man from house fire in West Philadelphia
Firefighters said it happened around 1:40 a.m. along the 4600 block of Walnut Street, near South 47th Street.
Officials believe the three victims are related; an uncle and two nephews, but it's unclear which one of them died in the fire. Officials have not confirmed their ages. Neighbor Kevin Allen said he saw one of the victims hanging from power cables behind the home after the man apparently jumped from a window."I went out in the back driveway and found one of the gentlemen hanging out the back window, kind of wrapped in a power cord or cable cord," said Allen. "His hand was tangled. I got a ladder, pulled him out lifted him up and untangled his hand. Called the fire department.
"The fire commissioner and all PFD personnel when we have something like this, we always emphasize the requirement in the city for smoke alarms and the need for your and your family to have working smoke alarms on every level and to practice an escape plan," Bannan said."You never want to see it any time of year but certainly you don't want to see it on the holidays. For the firefighters and paramedics that respond, it's always difficult," Bannan said.
The two survivors were rushed to the hospital with injuries that include cuts, burns and smoke inhalation.Copyright © 2022 WPVI-TV. All Rights Reserved.
