4 Boys save young girl from drowning – rewarded with burgers for life
There are moments in life when what happens around us leaves little room for thoughts and evaluations, because we must act and do so as soon as possible. We are talking about all those emergency situations that require immediate and decisive intervention, which makes the difference between life and d.e.a.t.h.
It was the usual weekend for one group of kids from Jackson Park, Missouri; the sun was out so they headed to their local park for a splash around in the creek.
Their usual haunt was Jackson City Park where kids would often splash around in the water at Hubble Creek.
But with recent high rainfall the water in the creek had risen above the bridge creating a dangerous current underneath it.
As four boys splashed around one noticed that a girl who had also been playing in the water suddenly disappeared.
A little girl who swam not far from the group of young people suddenly disappeared under the water. With the rains of the previous days, the water level of the stream had risen, creating dangerous currents. Immediately, the four wondered what had become of the little girl, named Kinsley Stuart, when one of them – Aiden – noticed a little hand sticking out of the water near a bridge. The little girl was under there and couldn’t get back to the surface unaided.
The current was strong and, although Aiden had managed to approach and grab her, he was unable to bring her to safety alone, so he called his friend Isaiah to help. He too, in a moment, approached and was followed by the other two boys: all together they fought against the current and managed to pull out the little girl, who would surely have risked drowning.
Thankfully, the whole group made it out of the water safely and Kinsley was taken to hospital where she was checked over and released.
After getting out of the water, the girl was immediately taken to hospital, where luckily the doctors checked she was in good health. Everything ended well, therefore, and for the boys, at that point, a tasty and well-deserved reward arrived. Kinsley’s parents, having learned of what had happened and the heroic rescue carried out by the young people, decided to give them a lifetime supply of … hamburgers.
‘Eat with us forever, for free’
That’s right: being the owners of a “Kenny’s Flippin ‘Burgers” shop – specialized, as you can guess from the name – in the tasty sandwiches – they thought that such a reward was the least they could offer to those who, courageously and without hesitation, had saved the life of their little girl. The four will be able to eat for free from them forever and, even if there is no sandwich or sum of money that can best express the gratitude of the parents, the boys will surely be happy.
Kinsley’s parents were overjoyed and so grateful to the boys for saving their daughter.
“We do want to say thank you to the boys from Kennys. We own Kenny’s flipping burgers. And we want to let you boys know that you guys can eat with us forever, for free. Because there is no amount of money, that can ever be put on what you did,” she said.
It’s scary to think what could have happened if these boys hadn’t been around that day. Please share to pay tribute to their bravery.
