3-Year-Old Hero Saves Great-Grandmother After Serious Fall

Bridger Peabody braved the dark to retrieve a phone, enabling help for his injured great-grandmother in Colorado.

Sharon Lewis, 77, fell and hit her head on a concrete step while walking with her 3-year-old great-grandson, Bridger Peabody, in Strasburg, Colorado.
Unable to get up and with no response from neighbors, Lewis asked Bridger to retrieve her phone from the car despite his fear of the dark.
Surveillance footage captured Bridger encouraging himself as he successfully retrieved the phone, allowing Lewis to call for help.
Lewis was diagnosed with a concussion and received 22 staples in her head but is now recovering well.
Bridger, celebrated as a hero by his family, was rewarded with a toy car and a special dinner planned in his honor.
