I think he is a true hero. It's pathetic that the cops would try to get him in trouble for saving a life. And after all, the article clearly states that he waited for 30 minutes for the firefighters to do something before doing his "reckless" stunt.

lv4dogs, that is totally and utterly ridicolous! I am so sorry for you and your boyfriend's sake... Tell him he too is a hero in my eyes and that cop, well, he should not be a cop! What a pig (actually no, that's an insult to real animal pigs)...
