Nebraska teen and entire home saved from shocking wildfire by video doorbell system

A family in the Midwest is expressing enormous gratitude for their video doorbell system -- which alerted them to a wildfire that began burning right outside their home. Misty Schlake of Gothenberg, Nebraska, downloaded the stunning recording from her Ring Video Doorbell and sent it to the home security company. "Ring did so much more than [let] us know someone was at our door! It saved my son's life and our home!" The doorbell notified Schlake's 18-year-old son, who was home alone at the time, that there was movement outside their family home on Thursday, April 21, at around 9:15 p.m. "When he went to the door, he saw our land was on fire," Schlake wrote in comments to Ring.
