GAINESVILLE, GA (WXIA) -- A 9-year old is credited with saving the life of her three younger siblings.  She got them all out of their burning home in the middle of the night.

They'd been left alone on Friday at the Highland Mobile Home Park off Athens Highway.  Hall County authorities say a smoke detector woke her up and she smelled smoke.  She made two trips to get her 5, 3 and 1 year old siblings safely across the street to a neighbor’s home.

“She was just banging on the door.  When I opened  the door she was standing there with her hands up saying I need help my house is on fire,” recalled Crawford Bailey.  “The house was in blazes, engulfed in fire totally.”

GAINESVILLE, Ga -- If you are going to commit a crime, you might not want to post video of yourself committing that crime on social media. That's what some suspects in Gainesville did this past Christmas Eve, gift-wrapping an arrest for police.

It couldn’t have been more convenient, according to Sgt. Kevin Holbrook. “We were given a gift from a citizen here in Gainesville,” he said. “They practically wrapped it, delivered it, and sealed it for us.”

The citizen, who is not being identified, told police they saw some very disturbing photos and videos on the social media app Snapchat. Police were surprised at what they saw several people doing in the video. “They were displaying firearms, displaying drugs so that all could see,” Sgt. Holbrook said. “They were definitely showing off as if they had no worries who even saw it.”
