MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. — More than two months after St. Paul firefighters pulled a girl from a burning home, she got a chance to say thank you.
Late Monday afternoon, the child and her rescuers were brought together at an awards ceremony. Nine-year-old Neveah Sellers shook hands with the firefighters and paramedics who saved her life that February morning.
“I’m very thankful. She is my only baby,” said Trinity Sellers, the girl’s mother. “I’m very blessed that she is here today, and I’m very thankful for the people who saved her.” Nevaeh let a poster do the talking for her while the St. Paul fire chief honored the firefighters from Station 7, and the paramedics from Medic 22.
