To two 13-year-olds, it was a simple selfless act, but to many others it was an act of great heroism.
On February 8, 2021, Silence Manyaka and Demetri Brown rescued two toddlers from a house fire in Cashew Hill.
During a brief ceremony at Government House, yesterday, the two young superheroes received the Halo Hero Humanitarian Medal from Governor General Sir Rodney Williams for exercising courage in extreme danger.
