Four Oklahoma heroes

The 4 heroes with Catherine Ritchie

We often hear negative comments and remarks about teenagers, sometimes getting in trouble and ignoring the values that we treasure so much. But then once in a while, we hear of a special story like the one that took place in Sapulpa, Oklahoma, 15 miles south-west of Tulsa. An elderly 90-year-old woman was trapped inside her house on fire. 4 teenagers smelled burning rubber and were alerted that something was not right. Moving to the neighboring house, they realized that a house was on fire with Catherine Ritchie inside, all by herself.

The 4 boys, Wyatt Hall, Seth Byrd, Dylan Wick, and Nick Byrd went inside and brought the woman out safely. Her house was severely damaged, especially on the inside, but thankfully she was not even hurt. Well done to 4 unsung heroes who saved the life of Catherine, who felt so grateful to these 4 Sapulpa high-schoolers.
