It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s Qing Chen, a mild-mannered Brooklyn pharmacy worker.
He may not be able to fly, but Chen got to superhero status on Friday when he rescued an 18-month-old girl who fell from a second-floor window onto an awning.
The tot had crawled through an NYC apartment window and, as bystanders looked on in shock, Chen raced upstairs to the girl’s apartment, squeezing through the same window the child had just fallen through. “I just grabbed her by the arm and took her into my chest and I just held her really tight,” Chen explained. The mother had reportedly been in the kitchen when the girl fell. “That could have been anybody’s baby, that could have been my baby,” Chen said.
