“I said,‘OK,we’re going to lie down and we’re all going to play a game,’”Pina said.“We all started singing our ABCs and 123s.I was just trying to make it fun.”
Pina patiently waited,and a few minutes later,Riverside County sheriff’s deputies (治安官的助手) arrived.Pina,Ilean,8yearold Gabriel Parga,5yearold Aubreyana Parga and 4yearold Meriyah Parga were all trapped on the second floor as flames filled the first story.
Pina did the only thing she could.She opened the window and dropped the children,onebyone,into the arms of the sheriff’s deputies about 15 to 20 feet below.
“I just needed to keep the kids calm so they wouldn’t be afraid,”Pina said.“I was deathly afraid inside,but I couldn’t let them know that.”
Not long after dropping the children out of the window,firefighters arrived with a ladder and rescued her.Ten people were treated at the scene for suffering smoke,but nobody was seriously injured.
