<h1>Passers-by catch tumbling toddler</h1><h4><span>Story Highlights</span></h4>•3-year-old crawled out of window, onto fourth-story fire escape<br /> •Boy bounced off one man, into arms of another<br /> •Boy treated for cuts, otherwise fine<p><strong>NEW YORK</strong> (AP) -- Two passers-by rescued a toddler who fell four stories, scrambling to catch him as he tumbled from a fire escape, police said.</p><p>Julio Gonzalez, 43, and Pedro Nevarez, 40, saw 3-year-old Timothy Addo dangling from a Bronx building on Thursday, police said. The boy had crawled out of a window when his baby sitter briefly took her eyes off of him, police said.</p><p>"He was hanging on for dear life," Gonzalez said.</p><p>Hearing people in the building scream for help as the boy's grip weakened, the men rushed over to position themselves under the fire escape to catch him. </p><p>"No one came," Nevarez said. "We knew it was up to us."</p><p>The boy tumbled and hit Nevarez in the chest so hard he knocked him off balance, but he bounced into Gonzalez' arms.</p><p>Timothy was treated at the hospital for a cut on his forehead.</p><p>"He's fine. He's happy. He's smiling," said his mother, 26-year-old Katrina Cosme, who was working at the time of the accident.</p><p>Police talked to the baby sitter, and an investigation was continuing Friday, Detective John Sweeney said.</p><p>The crucial catch came two days after a bystander threw himself onto a Manhattan subway track to save a man who had fallen, and a day after three police officers delivered a baby on a Brooklyn subway platform.</p><p>"This is the week of heroes in New York," Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said.</p><p>http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/01/05/kid.catch.ap/index.html?eref=rss_topstories <span class="post_edited"></span> <span class="post_edited"></span></p> <span class="post_edited"></span> <span class="post_edited"></span>

<p>I don't think he missed his chance, I think he's just picking his spots.</p><p>This one wasn't right for him so maybe he'll get the next one.</p>
