(AJC<\/a>) \u2013 An 8-year-old Georgia boy is credited with saving his neighbor\u2019s life.<\/p>\n

Logen Carter saw smoke coming from the neighbor\u2019s mobile home about 12:20 p.m. Saturday and decided to do something about it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

According to Hall County fire Capt. Zachary Brackett, Logen went to the residence in the 2900 block of Broome Road to investigate and ran to report his findings to his father.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

As Logen\u2019s mother called authorities, the boy and his father returned to the burning single-wide mobile home with a hose and sprayed it with water until firefighters arrived.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

That \u201cwoke up the occupant, who was taking a nap,\u201d Brackett said.<\/p>\n

The residence did not have a working smoke detector, according to investigators.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Although the exterior of the mobile home was damaged, the inside was not and the neighbor emerged without injury, Brackett said.<\/p>\n
