The Flagler County Sheriff’s Office said K-9 Deputy First Class Marcus Dawson arrived at the Palm Beach home and met a neighbor who said the fire started in the kitchen and he had not seen the three people who live in the home.
According to the sheriff’s office, Dawson walked around the back of the house and entered the patio through an unlocked screened door, where he spotted movement in the bed of the master bedroom which was the little boy hiding under blankets. Dawson rescued the child and carried him out of the home, officials said.
