This is about as heroic as it gets.
A fire destroyed a home on 5th Avenue in Troy Wednesday afternoon that killed one person, while another remains is in critical condition. Surveillance video shared with CBS 6 on Facebook shows neighbors breaking down a wooden fence in order to rescue an elderly man from the burning home.
A number of people were injured in the fire, including one of the good Samaritans and two firefighters - they're expected to be ok.
