A sad story, but he saved several lives

8-year-old boy rescues 6 relatives from fire, dies trying to save 7th
In his final moments, 8-year-old Tyler Doohan managed to rescue six people -- including two younger children -- from a burning mobile home in upstate New York, authorities said.

A last-ditch effort, however, to save his disabled grandfather cost the boy his life. His body was found by his grandfather, whom Tyler considered a best friend.
The trailer did not have a working smoke detector, which could have saved everyone. Please test your detector regularly.
