Joshua Gonzalez

As I parked my patrol unit I could feel the heat coming from the residence, once I made Joshua Gonzalez present to the people standing by, I asked them what was going on and they said somebody was inside the residence, that there were people in there... it was well within my heart and soul to run in and try and get these people out.

The house was already full of smoke, I could barely breathe and I even advised them,' cover your mouths', to try to get out as soon as possible safely, from that point, I grabbed the child and I held him tight in my arms and I ran out with him and got him to the street where there was a couple of neighbors... to take care of him.
