A special 9-year-old was singled out for recognition at Tuesday morning’s meeting of the Bullhead City Fire District governing board.
Breizon Roebuck was presented with a Young Hero Award by Fire Chief Patrick Moore, for her actions during a Sept. 13 structure fire.
Breizon called 911, BCFD public information officer Lori Viles said, giving the dispatcher complete information on her location and remaining calm throughout the process.
The homeowner was not there during the blaze, Viles said, but his dog was in the residence; Breizon called the animal out through a doggie door, possibly saving its life.
The 911 call was played for board members.
“Somebody’s trailer right next door to my trailer is on fire,” Breizon told the dispatcher.
