Police say flames were shooting out of the front of the house making it impossible for the family to come down from the second floor.

Bodycam video shows Snyder quickly finding a ladder and putting it in front of the second-story window. 

He climbed up the ladder and spoke through the window, directing the family to pass the baby to him through the window. Snyder grabs the baby's car seat and dashes the child from the fire.
