NBA Player Carries Neighbor's Baby Down 40 Stories During Bomb Scare

He’s got handle on and off the court.

Frank Kaminsky, power forward for the Charlotte Hornets, is being hailed as a hero for his act of kindness Thursday night.

According to Bleacher Report, Kaminsky was doing what he usually does after practice-- play Fortnight while eating Cheez-Its. Then, the fire alarm went off in his high rise building, due to a bomb threat.

“I had to walk down 49 stories because they shut off the elevators. Instead of grabbing my keys and my wallet, I grabbed a box of Cheez-Its for the long journey down,” Kaminsky said.

Three flights down, he ran into a neighbor who was struggling to carry her baby, a dog and a few other items. Kaminsky offered to take the child.

Of the deed, Kaminsky said, “I’m just a good Samaritan, not a hero.”

That bomb threat was one of many called around the country Thursday. The building was found to be safe.
