NEW ORLEANS -- DeShawn Labarriere is like any typical 7-year-old; ready to play. But his actions early Saturday morning has friends and family calling him a little hero.
“A lot of fire started before I woke up,” explained DeShawn. DeShawn’s mother, Brittany Labarriere, explained she had dropped him off at the babysitters home around 10:30 p.m. Friday. Hours later, she got a call that there had been a fire.
“Words can’t explain, thank god I live right around the corner,” said Labarriere. Deshawn was sleeping on a sofa next to the wall where the fire started.
“I thought I heard like fireworks, but who could shoot fireworks late at night like that?," explained DeShawn. "It was fire.” So he said he got up, put a blanket over his head to protect himself and began helping wake everyone up in the house.

And he was dropped off at the sitter's house at 10:30pm? $500 says she was hooking.

And some people complain that I only post negative threads.. This is what happens when I post something positive. It does not look like the OT wants it. I am reverting back.
