A three year old boy is safe and sound after his seven year old brother saved him from a burning van last week.
The family was on their way back to Calgary last week from the U.S. when they pulled over on a gravel road and their van became stuck.
Alana Collins, the boys’ mother, is not sure what started the fire; only that she was only able to get her five year old daughter out before the blaze spread.
Seven year old Nathaniel also got out, but went running back in to get his three year old brother Luis.
Alana tells the Calgary Sun her oldest did what nobody else could and his bravery brings tears to her eyes.
