16-Year-Old Helps Contain Fire in Locked Greater Noida FlatPreviousNext

A 16-year-old boy in Greater Noida noticed a fire in a locked flat at Gaur City 2 around 1 pm while retrieving his grandfather's scooter. He alerted security and neighbors, then fetched a fire extinguisher and broke the glass door to enter the flat, where he helped contain the flames before they spread to nearby books. The flat's owners were away, and the incident was captured in a video shared on Instagram, which praised the teenager's quick and courageous response.
