Woman scaled a fence surrounding yard, called 911 & ran to the porch, calling for the man to drop children to her...she caught 3-year-old twins (a boy and a girl), then their 7- and 9-year-old sisters. Their father, Joe Williams, leaped to safety later.

It's this kind of person who you wished walked past your house every day. I know that those children were very lucky and that her bravery saved their lives. Although you can't be sure of what started the fire, it's a shame there were no working smoke detectors in the house.

Awesome! That lady deserves some kind of an award. I'm so glad the children and their father are safe.
