Herbert and Judith Lamb were forced to drop their 6-year-old grandson from the window of their third-floor apartment into the arms of a waiting firefighter.
The boy told WCVB-TV that smoke was coming into his mother’s room shortly before his grandparents dropped him into the arms of fire Lt. Glenn McGillivray. He said he told the firefighter “thank you for saving me.”
McGillivray said firefighters knew Judith Lamb wouldn’t be able to hold onto the boy until more help arrived, so they told her to drop him.
“Thank God I caught him,” McGillivray told The Boston Globe. “I’ve never had to do that before, and I hope I never have ugg boots brown to do it again.”
Firefighters then used a ladder to rescue the grandmother.
Residents who escaped said they heard an explosion at about 1 a.m.

Republicans saw Obama’s jobs package as laden with wasteful spending and counter-productive tax hikes for wealthier Americans who tend to be entrepreneurs and job creators.
Their disagreement has extended the deadlock that brought the United States to the edge of sovereign default in August when Democrats and Republicans failed to agree on deficit cuts as part of a deal to raise the U.S. debt ceiling.
That impasse makes it unlikely that any major steps to spur hiring will be passed before the 2012 election, when Obama will be judged for his economic stewardship.
TOUGH ROAD IN 2012
The White House billed Obama’s trip — his second bus tour through small-town America since he visited the rural Midwest in August — as a chance to reconnect with ordinary citizens.
