Wednesday 3 August 2022 05:27 PM Pennsylvania teen saves neighbors from raging house fire by pullin trends now A Pennsylvania teen sprung into action to save several apartment residents after a fire broke out early Monday morning. Falon O'Regan, 17, was about to go to bed in the four-unit building located at the 100 block of Church Street in Bentleyville when he saw the flames coming from the front porch of the complex. The 17-year-old, who lives with his mother, Rebecca Williams, sat outside the remains of the complex on Wednesday morning, as the pair emotionally recalled the tragic incident during a phone interview with DailyMail.com. 'I opened the [front] door.. and I was flabbergasted,' O'Regan said as he recalled the moment he first caught sight of the flames. 'I stared at it for a couple of seconds, closed it, grabbed the stuff that I could, broke a door, broke a window, and I jumped.' Falon O'Regan, 17, was about to go to bed when he spotted flames coming from the front porch of his four-unit apartment complex early Monday morning The blaze broke out shortly before 1am on Monday. O'Regan quickly grabbed what he could from his room before jumping out of window to help others. The 17-year-old grabbed a trampoline nearby to allow people from the second story of the two-story complex to jump to safety O'Regan was completely shocked by the flames. About 18 people reside in the building, and all O'Regan thought about was saving them O'Regan instantly thought about the children who live throughout the complex, and attributes his heroic actions to the desire to save them. 'I thought about the kids, and what I would do if I was younger,' he said. 'I just thought I'd panic, so I just had to do this.' O'Regan ran back to his room to grab his birth certificate and wallet before leaping out the window. He was left with no time to grab anything else, but left open a window and door for his four cats to try to escape as he rushed to help the others. Before leaping out the window of his apartment complex, O'Regan grabbed his phone and birth certificate. He left a window and door open in hopes his four cats would make it out alive 'The shorts I had on at the time had no pockets,' he said. 'I had no shoes on. I was walking around barefoot.' The heroic teenager was the first one outside before other neighbors residing on the first floor followed shortly after. O'Regan then pulled a nearby trampoline close enough to the burning building for neighbors on the second floor to jump. For about five to ten minutes, O'Regan had to help the upstairs neighbors conquer their fears of jumping. 'They had no choice other than to [jump],' he said. 'I had to talk them into jumping.' Two adults, two dogs and two kids eventually jumped to safety. Three people were taken to the hospital for smoke inhalation and another suffered a leg injury. The Bentleyville Fire Department was not immediately available for comment.

Families are unable to go inside to see what possessions remain Meanwhile, O'Regan's mother, Williams, was working a night shift at UPS about 25 minutes away when she received a call from her son about the blaze. 'He threw the phone at one of the people laying on the trampoline so he can yell at everybody else to jump and get out,' Williams recalled. 'I couldn't get him anymore, and I was worried because our pets were all in there, and my other son had his cat there and I was worried about getting him woken up and getting someone here for my son.' 'He was slowly losing it trying to help, but at the same time he was freaking out because he was alone,' Williams said. As Williams sits outside the burnt Bentleyville complex, she weeps at losing everything she owned, including a few of her cats. 'I've had to build up from nothing before, but never have I lost my kid's memories,' Williams said while choking on her tears. 'I haven't even really processed [it] yet. I'm still trying to acclimate myself to the fact that I lost my animals.' 'My grandma's things are in there, and my kid's memories are in there, and everything I own was in there,' she said. 'But I was thinking about getting my animals. My son really beat himself up for the fact that he couldn't get the cats out. But he thought enough to at least get the window open and make sure the door was open.' The family started a GoFundMe page to help raise funds to rebuild their lives. As of Tuesday morning, about $3,000 has been raised. The family has a goal of reaching $10,000. A small blaze rekindled at the complex on Monday afternoon and was quickly put out, according to Williams. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
