A fast-acting firefighter rescued a man trapped behind the burglar bars on his front door as his home filled with smoke late Monday, according to fire officials.

Hazziz Crawford, 34, suffered smoke inhalation and minor burns, but was expected to survive. No one else was injured.

Fire crews responded to a house fire at 2204 E Chipco St. about 10:48 p.m., arriving about five minutes later. Firefighter Jason Luna grabbed a prying tool and rushed to the front porch.

He quickly sprung open the burglar bars and helped Crawford away from the smoke.
