DRAMATIC RESCUE: SCDF officers investigating outside the burnt flat as relieved family members wait downstairs. -- SHAHRIYA YAHAYA
A SEVEN-YEAR-OLD boy - mistakenly left behind in a burning flat by his panicked family - was saved in a dramatic rescue carried out by firefighters yesterday.
Muhamed Arrifin's relatives realised he was still in the Yishun flat only when they saw him waving from the bedroom window of the third-floor executive apartment.
The boy's aunt, Madam Halimah Manap, related the chain of events to The Straits Times.
At around 6.40pm, she was having a bath when she heard shouts from within the flat.
She rushed out to see her father and brother trying desperately to fight flames from a storeroom - where several old newspapers were kept - near the kitchen.
