Rockland Hero Jean Donald Mathieu Recieves NYS Senate Liberty Medal for Rescuing 8-Month Old From Fire
ROCKLAND COUNTY, NY – On Sunday, Senator Bill Weber recognized Jean Donald Mathieu with the New York State Liberty Medal – the highest civilian honor that can be bestowed by a member of the New York State Senate upon a resident of New York State – for rescuing an 8-month-old baby (pictured below via News 12) and two adults from a fire in Spring Valley earlier this month.
Mathieu climbed a tree to get over the metal fence and ran straight toward the smoking building. He climbed a narrow fire escape ladder to the third floor and snatched the baby named Isabella out of harm’s way.
Isabella’s mother, Katia Locrete Pierre-Louis, said she is forever thankful for Mathieu’s heroic efforts.
Great job by Jean Donald Mathieu!
