Mom trapped in fire throws baby out of window

A mother trapped in a burning third-floor apartment prayed and then dropped her 1-month-old son out a window to the crowd below. The infant was caught safely by a man who plays catcher for his employer's baseball team.

The rescuer gave the baby mouth-to-mouth resuscitation — a skill he picked up two decades ago as a teenage lifeguard — and the mother was rescued by firefighters. Both were treated at a hopsital and released. Article here.

This story actually happened in Kansas City. I remember hearing this story on my way to work… they caught the entire thing on one of the security cameras. Click here to watch the video.
