Firefighters are typically viewed as every day heroes. Each day--called out to emergencies, never knowing what they are going to face. But Tuesday, Aug. 20, a call came across the radios at the Dunbar Fire Department for an emergency that had them all scared of what they were going into. "We were dispatched for a one-month-old in possible cardiac arrest," said Deputy Chief Jason Burger with the Dunbar Fire Department. "On the way there, we were actually having a conversation, saying please don't let this be real. That's just a call that you never want to run." They were called out to Amy Smith's home in Dunbar after she noticed that her baby, Brayden, less than two-weeks old at the time, was barely breathing.
