Family saved by 7-year-old boy

From CNN + AP + Fox News

NORWALK, Calif. (AP) — A dramatic 911 call reveals a terrified 7-year-old boy begging emergency dispatchers to send police to his California home where three armed robbers were threatening his parents.

The boy called emergency operators early Tuesday after the gunmen broke into the Norwalk home.

On the recording, he begs the operator to send police quickly, “a lot of them… And soldiers too.”
