A CLEVELAND OHIO MAN'S SELFLESS ACT SAVES BABY. HE ENTERED A BURNING HOME 3 SEPARATE TIMES TO SAVE AN 11-MONTJ-OLD BABY. (PHOTO).


 A Cleveland Ohio man's selfless act saves baby. He entered a burning home 3 separate times to save an 11-month-old baby.


62-Year-old John Stickovich was headed to work on Monday when he came upon a scary scene.


 Smoke and flames were pouring from a 2 story home. John noticed firefighters had not arrived on scene yet and a woman was sitting on the lawn holding a baby while waiting for firefighters. 


John ran up to her and asked if she was alright and she immediately informed him that her 11-month-old baby was inside.


That's when this 62-year-old man switched into hero mode. He ran to the side of the home and kicked in the door. However the flames and smoke were so intense he was driven back. Undaunted John ran to the back of the home and crawled in through an open door. The smoke was so heavy that he could not find the child, once again he retreated. He ran out to the mother and asked the exact location of her baby. She told him the child was "next to the kitchen behind a baby gate".


With zero concern for his own safety, John crawled back into the burning home. He crawled around feeling for the gate as visibility was very low. John eventually found the gate but there was no child to be found. 


John didn't want to give up but the conditions were so bad he knew he would succumb to the smoke soon. Right as he was getting ready to retreat he heard the baby! John lurched forward blindly, unable to breathe, and was able to grab the child's legs. He then dragged the baby out of the home to safety. 


Firefighters credit John with saving the baby's life saying, "He risked his life to bring the baby out."


The fire was so bad that 2 firefighters were injured when a portion of the home collapsed, but thanks to John everyone was alive at the end of the day.


Great Job John, you truly are an everyday hero!
