Heroes come in all shapes and sizes. Sometimes, we may not even recognize someone as a hero until we see them in action.
Often, when we think about heroes, the first thing that comes to mind is likely someone who has a job in that area, such as a fireman or a policeman. Although anybody could be a hero, those individuals tend to have the option of becoming an actual hero more often than others.
One of the reasons why a hero may step up to the plate is in the case of the missing child. It is one of the most stressful issues a parent would have to ever go through, and the people of Ontario County, New York, found that out personally.
A 2-year-old girl had gone missing from her home in that area and many in the community were looking for her. One person who was nearby was a state trooper, Brian Hotchkiss.
Officer Hotchkiss was on his way home from duty that day when he heard the call come in over the radio. He decided he would get in on the rescue effort, and he jumped in without thinking.
