You might consider a plumber to be a hero when they fix a leaking pipe in your home.
But Wednesday afternoon in Wallington, a plumber also saved a person's life from a burning home, according to police.
Robert Decker, who is also a 20-year firefighting veteran, was working his full-time job at Wallington Plumbing Supply when he saw smoke and flames in a home nearby.
