  • 10 years ago this coming Saturday, Charles Ramsey was among those who became internationally famous as part of the Miracle in Cleveland.
    Ramsey says he heard screams coming from the house on Seymour Avenue on that night in May 2013, the night Gina, Amanda and Michelle finally broke out of that house where Ariel Castro kept them captive for almost a decade.
    After hearing the screams, Ramsey went to check it out and along with others, helped the girls escape.
    WKYC news anchor Russ Mitchell talked with Charles Ramsey the day after the 3 women were found.

      God bless him he is living proof angels walk among us 🙏😇❤️ the government should give him a national hero award and the government should pay his bills for the rest of his life. He should never have to worry or struggle for the rest of his life. This man is what all men in America should aspire to be. God bless you sir and your family and loved ones ❤

    Plain and simple. Charles Ramsey is a hero. Charles Ramsey did what probably most of us would have not done. Alot of people wouldn't want to get involved. I might've even ignored the screams. Not deliberately. I'm just glad that Charles decided to go to the house and kick in the door. You never know something like that might happen and you have to think quickly. I'm just so glad that Charles did take the initiative and saved those women's lives. He's a true hero.
