A security guard was on patrol at the Raghu Apartments in the 8600 block of Pitner near Hollister when he saw fire and heard a family’s desperate cry for help shortly after 4 A.M. He helped a woman, man and their little boy get to safety.
“The security guard knocked on the door, kicked in the door, got the people out,” said HFD District Chief Roy Moore. ”The security guard on the scene had all the victims out when we arrived.”
The guard and little boy were taken to the hospital for smoke inhalation treatment. The dad was treated on scene and the boy’s mother was not injured.
