“I am very thankful that he [Levi] is still alive because he was unconscious when he was pulled out of the bedroom. It’s like he was sent an angel.”
Officials said a person passing by noticed smoke coming from the property and helped get the family out to safety, including 8-year-old Levi Burkett.
Levi has since been in a hospital in Augusta with second- and third-degree burns, but he is expected to survive. Tyler Maples, a volunteer fire chief in Doerun, said the fire could’ve been much worse if crews arrived just minutes later.The family said Levi was likely wrapped up in the blanket at the foot of the bed when the fire started. The 8-year-old was reportedly home with three other family members, including a baby. They were also able to escape.“They need as much help as possible. The home is unlivable,” Maples said.
