A Malian immigrant, Mamoudou Gassama who scaled an apartment building in Paris to save the life of a dangling 4-year-old , has met with French President Emmanuel Macron and he’s been rewarded for his brave act.
After the video of him saving the boy went viral, he met with President Macron at the Elysée Palace, after which Macron revealed that Mamoudou will be granted French citizenship and enrolled as a firefighter in the French fire service.
The 22-year-old undocumented immigrant, has been dubbed “Le Spiderman” because of how fast he scaled the building to get to the child.
“All the papers will be put in order,” Macron said when meeting Mamoudou Gassama.
During his meeting with Macron, Mamoudou told him of his experience.
“I was trembling, I couldn’t believe it,” he said.
Macron asked what condition the child had been in once he’d been rescued.
“He was crying, his feet were hurt” said Gassama, adding that he had seen the toddler since the incident.
“Bravo,” replied the president.
