6岁女孩冲进火场 勇敢拯救全家人
6岁女孩冲进火场 勇敢拯救全家人

On April 4, Olivia was playing outside at a neighbor’s house with a friend. Suddenly she noticed the fire coming from her house. Realizing the danger her family was in, she ran into the burning house right away. Her mother, Laura, 29, and her younger brother and sister, Joel-James, one, and Tiffany, two, were in the house. They were asleep on the sofa. Olivia quickly woke them up and they escaped the burning house. Everyone was safe.

“We can’t believe Olivia got Laura out,” said Sadie, Olivia’s grandmother. “She’s only six years old. She ran into a burning building!”

According to Laura, the fire started in their next-door neighbor’s house and quickly went to their three-bedroom home. Sadly, Laura’s house cannot be repaired. An engineer said the house need to be built again.

In answer to the shocking loss, Laura’s friends have set up a fundraising (募捐) page (more information here) to help the family during this hard time. “Everything they own has been destroyed,” the page said. “The engineer has been to Laura’s home, and the house needs to be rebuilt. It cannot be saved.” Lots of people provide their help. They have already raised nearly £5,000 for the family.
