The bond between siblings is powerful—and 13-year-old Owen Burns proved it in a heroic way.

While getting ready to play Call of Duty at his home in Alpena Township, Michigan, Owen heard his 8-year-old sister screaming outside. Looking out the window, he saw a man trying to drag her into the woods.

Without hesitation, Owen grabbed his $3 slingshot and the nearest ammo—a marble and a rock. Thanks to his target practice on cans, he hit the attacker twice: once between the eyes and once in the chest.

The kidnapper ran off, and Owen’s sister was safe. They called their mom, who quickly contacted the police. A 17-year-old suspect was arrested soon after, showing injuries that matched Owen’s aim.

Police praised Owen for his bravery, saying he likely saved his sister’s life. His mom was stunned at first but later said, “It sounds like something you’d see in the movies.” Owen reminded her, “Things from the movies can really happen in real life.”

Owen’s quick thinking and courage have inspired his entire community—and now, many more.
