A Buffalo, New York, man is being hailed as a hero for saving his family from a house fire and reportedly sacrificing his life in the process.

Demetrius Johnson, 24, woke up after he smelled smoke from their home. He then carried his 8-year-old daughter and 15-month-old son out of the burning building. He also made sure his fiancee, Tempest, was safe.

When Johnson realized his 3-year-old son was still in the house, he ran back into the flames.
