Chicago Boy Saves 13 People from House Fire After Being Only One Awake

A five-year-old boy saved 13 people from a house fire in Chicago over the weekend, according to People.

Jayden Espinosa was staying at his aunt's apartment on Saturday when, about 4 a.m., he smelled smoke and alerted his aunt and family members. He then went downstairs to warn neighbors.

When he was asked how he knew what he should do in such a situation, the boy said it was "because I'm smart and brilliant."

Both the American Red Cross and a GoFundMe fundraiser are helping Jayden's aunt and cousins to rebuild their lives.

Here's the GoFundMe page if you want to help.

The cause of the blaze is still unknown.
