After an explosion leveled a New Jersey house, an off-duty police officer who lives a block away rushed to the scene and pulled a victim from the back of the home.

An off-duty officer rushed to the scene after a Ridgefield, New Jersey, home exploded, rescuing an injured man from the collapsed home.

"As I called to him, he did respond. He gave his name, and I advised him of the house that was on fire, that he needed to crawl out," Cigercioglu said."We were able to take some wood out to make a big enough hole where he crawled out. And several officers and I helped him get out of the house." PSE&G officials were able to turn off the gas and the Ridgefield Fire Department was able to extinguish the fire.
