(WKBW) A dramatic child rescue Thursday in Niagara County.

Police said it appears that a 4-year-old child opened a window on the second story of a home on 20th street in Niagara Falls, allowing a one-year-old child to crawl out the window and onto the roof.

A neighbor spotted the child on the roof and climbed up to secure the child until fire rescue arrived.

The children's father was reportedly sleeping at the time of the incident.
