Nigerian Woman And Her 3 Kids Jumps From Burning 4 Storey Building In South Korea

Nigerian woman and her three children trapped on the fourth storey of a burning building in Pyeongtaek, South Korea, miraculously survived without injuries.In her bid to draw public attention

to the nightmare, the 30-year-old woman, identified as Mrs Precious Enyioko, dangled her baby through the window as smoke billows from two floors below. This drew the attention of onlookers,
who screamed and waved their hands as she held out her terrified one-year-old infant whose legs were kicking furiously before dropping her to the crowd. But this was after Airmen persuaded her to throw the kids from the building.Another three-year-old child followed, then another four-year-old, before the woman leaped from the window, the only escape route, CNN reported. Remarkably, all survived without injury. United States Air Force Master, Sgt. Daniel Raimondo, told CNN he was walking to dinner at the weekend when he saw clouds of smoke and set off in that direction.On assessing the scene, Raimondo and a colleague discussed how to help and resolved to get some blankets from a nearby store.They corralled others to help hold the blankets, then tried to persuade the mother to drop her children to safety. First, Sgt. Melanie Scott said the woman was understandably reluctant to let go of her children. “You could tell she was scared. She didn’t want to,” Scott said.Raimondo said the “last baby was the most difficult in my eyes, she just wouldn’t let her go for some reason.” He said he repeatedly begged the mother: “Please just throw the baby down! I remember her screaming (at) the baby, “I love you, I love you. …” Next thing you know she dropped the baby.”“You’re alive!” By this time, the mother had to jump. “The smoke and the fire was just horrendous,” Raimondo said. “You could barely even see her at that point.” The woman fell more heavily than the children and hit the ground beneath the blanket, but someone had had the foresight to put cushions underneath it,” he said.“We carried her into a safe location into a salon,” he said. “I just kept yelling and talking to her, ‘You’re alive! You’re alive!’. She flew like Supergirl.”On Monday, the rescued family met the people who saved their lives and thanked them.“I don’t know how I would explain my thanks,” said the children’s father, Prince Enyioko.“I was so surprised, I see the people gathering here to rescue my family, especially the military.” Raimondo said he sat with the first child to be rescued in the aftermath Saturday and held her while her mother, suffering from smoke inhalation, sat in shock. “I let her know that she was very brave and she flew like Supergirl. She just smiled,” he said. “It was an emotional experience. The good news is they made it through alive.”
