TEXAS POLICE OFFICERS SAVED 2 YOUNG CHILDREN WITH ONLY SECONDS TO SPARE. (PHOTO).


 Texas Police officers save 2 young children with only seconds to spare.


When officers Ashton Moss and Michael Stephenson arrived at an early morning house fire in Vidor, Texas on Sept 10th, their first question was, "is everyone out". 


When a woman on scene frantically told them her two children (ages 7 and 9) were trapped in their room, these two everyday heroes sprang into action.


The two young boys were trapped in their room by the flames with their only path of escape blocked by an A/C window unit. However this was not going to stop this determined duo. 


Officer Stephenson grabbed the unit and began to use brute force to break it loose from its mounting. He was then able to push the unit inside the room freeing up an escape route for the children.


The two officers quickly pulled the two children out the window to safety. According to their Chief, Rod Carroll, the two boys were approximately "40 seconds from losing their lives as the flames were spreading quickly". Chief Carroll noted if the officers weren't so close and quick-acting there would have been a much worse outcome instead of the outcome we are all celebrating. 


Both boys were taken to an area hospital for smoke inhalation and released.


Great job Officer Stephenson and Officer Moss!!!.
