    Medal of Bravery

    On March 14, 2013, Paul Hurst and Susannah Utendale rescued a girl from a burning house in View Royal, British Columbia. On his arrival, off-duty fire chief Paul Hurst found Ms. Utendale desperately trying to locate her great-granddaughter inside the dwelling. The ceiling started to collapse on them, forcing Mr. Hurst to pull Ms. Utendale outside. He then re-entered the house, located the girl and brought her out to safety.
