Searching and clearing the first and second floors he made his way to the third floor. When reaching to a third floor platform apartment he was met by smoke and heat conditions. His persistence of clearing the building came to fruition as he found an elderly male trying to get dressed inside a bedroom. Because of the selfless act of bravery and courage the elderly males life was spared.
