Matt Burson was driving home from work when his coworker saw the flames. “We got out and you could see the glow,” said Burson. “You could hear roaring and crackling from the flames and see smoke billowing out the front door.” The fire injured a mother and her three children. When Burson showed up he saw two of the children outside the home, but 32-year-old Angel Fiorini and her daughter were still inside. “So I went in on my hands and knees and I saw a woman passed out so I got a hold of her and drug her out,” said Burson. “I heard a moan so I got back down on my hands and knees and went back in just a little further down where the daughter was.”
