It’s now been almost two months since Jackson firefighters rescued a 9-year-old girl from a burning home.
Tuesday, the girl and her family got to thank the firefighters who saved her life.
6 News was there for the meeting at the Jackson Fire Department’s Central Fire Station.
It was a meeting full of hugs, tears, and gratitude for the firefighters who saved 9-year-old Amanda Oliver.
“I thank you for saving me,” Amanda said.
The morning of May 26, a fire broke out in the Oliver family’s home on Fourth Street in Jackson.
