A Jamestown police officer who was notified early Monday morning of a possible structure fire then came across the fully engulfed home was praised for his efforts after he removed a child then caught two occupants when they jumped to safety from an upstairs window.

The dramatic incident was captured on the body camera of officer Mark Conklin.

The fire at 16 1/2 William St. was reported to county dispatch by Conklin at 12:16 a.m. According to Jamestown Police Chief Timothy Jackson, the officer was on a service call on Baker Street when he was notified of the possible fire up the road.

In the video posted to Facebook, Conklin is seen running up to the property with heavy flames shooting from either the rear or front. He then briefly enters a side door where he lifts a child and brings them outside to safety.

Conklin returns to the side of the property and yells to at least two occupants still on the second floor: “Jump, jump, I got you. I got you!” The video ends as the first person jumps into his arms.

Jackson said the officer’s actions were nothing short of heroic.

“I can say that I have seen many examples of heroism over the years by officers,” Jackson said. “After watching the video of this incident and speaking to others involved, I can say that the actions of officer Conklin were, to say the least, one of the most outstanding examples of bravery, heroism, and exemplary service I have seen.”

He added: “We, the Jamestown Police Department, are honored to have officers such as Mark Conklin working in the Jamestown Police Department.”

Members of the family were taken by Jamestown and Busti ambulance to UPMC Chautauqua for evaluation. The home was destroyed in the fire and was demolished by Monday morning.
