Watch: Two Philadelphia Firefighters Rescued from Row House Fire
Two Philadelphia firefighters pulled out of a row house fire over the weekend remained hospitalized on Monday.
About two minutes after Brother Lewis saw firefighters enter his neighbor's burning house, they were rescued, NBC 10 reported.
"Who wants to go into a burning building? Nobody. It takes certain people to do the job and that what these guys do," Lewis said, adding that the crews from the station saved his son from a previous fire.
The house sustained extensive damage. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
