A New York state trooper saved the day when he rescued a missing girl who had wandered away from her home in South Bristol. When the two-year-old’s family couldn’t find her, they called authorities and Trooper
Brian Hotchkiss was on the search team.
About an hour later, he spotted her from a mountain peak after noticing her pink coat stand out among all the grey. Hotchkiss says he climbed through trees for about 15 minutes before he found the stream and followed it to find the toddler, who was lying on her stomach on a rock in the stream.

A grocery store employee in Illinois became a hero by saving a baby in a runaway shopping cart.
BenMazur is a courtesy clerk at Schnucks supermarket in Alton and he was hard at work wrangling carts when he heard a car horn “repeatedly and frantically honking.” It turns out, the driver was alerting him the cart rolling away quickly with a baby strapped inside.
Mazur took off, sprinting across the parking lot to save the infant. Because he bolted, he was able to stop the shopping cart before it slammed into a stop sign. The baby’s mother didn’t even realize what was happening because she was putting her other kids in the car when the cart took off.

A “superhero” delivery driver in Vietnam was in the right place at the right time to save a child’s life.
Nguyen Ngoc Manh was in his car waiting to make a delivery in Hanoi when he heard a child crying and a woman screaming. He looked out and saw the two-year-old girl climbing out onto a 12th-floor balcony of a nearby building.
Manh rushed out of his car and climbed onto a nearby building’s roof to get closer, in case she fell. He says he lost his footing just as she started to fall, but he flung himself forward and was able to catch her, landing so hard he left a dent in the roof.
