Hero Gets Arrested For Rescuing His Own Dog From A Burning Building

In 2003, a man named Jarrod Martin saved his dog, Bishop, from a house fire in West Memphis. Even though the police had warned him against it, he rushed into the house and saved his best friend. The smoke from the fire could have caused him to blackout while in the burning house or cause an explosion that could have endangered all of their lives by his recklessness.
