Another Brave Boy Survives Intruders

An eleven-year-old boy was sitting at home, waiting for his father to return with dinner.  He heard a window break, and men's voices as they tore through the house.  The boy grabbed a phone and hid himself and the family dog, and called 911.

If you hear his voice on the call (it's a very short video) it will break your heart.  He is scared and collected at the same time, and the relief when he hears police outside the window was enough to bring tears to my eyes.

The hero tag is both for his strength and for thinking of the dog, who most assuredly wouldn't have made a criminal blink if they thought to kill it.
