“I was watching TV and I started to hear him shouting ‘fire, fire’. When I came out I saw a huge flame and everything was white. I grabbed my dog and everything I might and left down the stairs.. Then neighbors from another building came to help us,” Giuliana said.
He also said that in addition to the firefighters, residents of other buildings ran to help them. “They guided us down the stairs, because I was with my dog and he is very heavy, I mightn’t carry him,” he explained.
