Boy saves Brother from Double Homicide
Apr. 21st, 2012 10:18 amMentioned here, I was looking for that story about the brave little boy. I found it.

;_; Good kid. "I didn't want him to go through the same situation."
The police department in Kansas City, Missouri held an awards ceremony Thursday to honor Jason Smith, a 10-year-old boy who saved his brother's life during a horrible home break-in that left his mother and grandmother dead, Fox 4 News Kansas City reports.
Smith is the only person not employed by the police department to receive their prestigious life-saving award, which they bestowed in honor of his bravery and quick-thinking last summer on July 28.
Smith's ordeal started around 1:30 a.m. that morning, when he and his 2-year-old brother Zion were asleep with their grandmother. That's when Rufus Young, their mother's ex-boyfriend, burst into the house with a gun, KCTV reports.
Young shot the boys' grandmother while she was holding Zion in her arms, and then turned to find their mother, 36-year-old Naushay Riley. The boys' uncle Robert Hauer explained what happened next.
Should he get such an award? Or maybe I should ask, would you have done the same thing?
The comments expresses it enough: MY HEART OVERFLOWS.
