Quick-thinking teacher helps virtual student get out of house on fire
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A quick-thinking teacher is getting praise for getting two children out of a burning home.
The home is on Woodrow Avenue near West Washington Street.
According to Wayne Township Fire Department, the blaze happened during a virtual class Wednesday.

Crews say Weaver called 911.
No one was hurt, and the cause of the fire is under investigation.
