Firemen Honor Tyler Student

TYLER — An Award of Appreciation has been presented to A Peete Elementary student whose actions saved his family’s lives. It was LaKeith Coble, 8, who woke his mother to let her know their house was on fire. The fire was reported around 3:30 last Sunday morning in the 1800 block of West Jackson Street. Investigators determined the cause of the fire was a faulty space heater. The home did not have smoke detectors so the youngsters’ quick actions can be credited with saving his family.
