Amid all the devastation and loss of the still-burning Los Angeles fires, some joy has been found as a man who lost his home in the Palisades fire was reunited with his lost dog, who survived five nights in the rubble.
In a post to her social media accounts on Sunday afternoon, NBC News reporter Liz Kreutz shared a video of a man named Casey Colvin emotionally reuniting with his pup, Oreo. According to Kreutz, she met Colvin on the first day of the fires, and assured people that he did not intentionally evacuate without his dogs.
“He wasn’t home when the evacuation notice went out and was desperately trying to get back home to get them,” she explained in a follow-up post.
