Website: www.breakingnewsenglish.comKeywords: was pointing at / just in timeText:"I watched an interesting news story earlier. A young man was walking in the street in Ain el Fakroun when he heard a loud scream coming from above. He looked up and saw a woman. She looked scared. She was at her window pointing at something. The young man looked at what she was pointing at and saw a toddler dangling between the railings of a balcony, on the third floor of the building across the street. The man ran to the building as fast as he could and arrived just in time to catch the falling two-year-old. Both the child and the man are fine. There was a video showing the whole thing. It was so scary to watch. Even though I know the end, I know that the man is a hero and the kid is fine, but still it was scary to watch. The father said “It all happened so fast. I was folding the laundry and he was playing with his toys when I suddenly noticed that he wasn’t there. I just looked away for two seconds. I am still shaking! I will be eternally grateful to Mr. Hamid.”
