Mailman Helps Elderly Man From Burning Lexington Home

LEXINGTON (CBS) -- A mailman in Lexington might be called a hero.

He spotted a fire in a house on Fern Street, called 911 and ran inside to help a 96-year-old man out of the home.

The fire, which went to three alarms, burned the second and third floors of the home.

No one was hurt. No word on what caused the fire.
