Newark Mayor Cory Booker rescued his neighbor from a burning building when he came home to find his neighbors house on fire. A woman screamed that her daughter was still inside and Mayor Booker sprung into action running into the burning house and pulling the woman to safety.
“It was a really frightening experience for me. I didn’t think we were going to get out of there,” Booker said.
