Biloxi (MS) Firefighter Grateful for Rescue

Biloxi firefighter Scott Hoverman said he was at the wrong place at the wrong time during a fire, reports WLOX.

Hoverman couldn’t get the door open on his truck and burned his hand as he tried to open the door. Just when things looked most dire, a veteran leader in the department stepped up.

Battalion Chief Jim Davis actually transported Hoverman to the hospital. As the adrenaline wore off, the gratitude set in.
