COPENHAGEN, N.Y. (WWNY) - A young man from Copenhagen is being praised as a hero after rescuing a boy from drowning last week.
Hunter Booth is 12 years old. During spring break last week, he was on a family vacation to Florida - a memorable experience that soon turned unforgettable.
“I was just hanging out in the pool, playing around and this little kid comes over and he’s trying to swim over to his sister I think and he kept going over in the deep end and he started just going down and he went fully under,” said Hunter.
