Charles Ramsey, a dishwasher in Cleveland 's Westside was eating dinner on Monday night at his home when he heard a young girl screaming from behind a neighbor's door. He soon knocked down the door, and freed Amanda Berry. She implored him to call 911 and as she told him who he was, he soon realized he rescued the the woman that he thought had been dead for years, CNN reported.
"I'm eating my McDonald's, I come outside, and I see this girl going nuts, trying to get out of the house," Charles Ramsey told reporters. "I got on the porch and she said, 'Help me get out. I've been a long time.' I figured it was a domestic violence dispute. So I open the door. And we can't get in that way 'cause of how the door is, it's so much that a body can't fit through, only your hand.'
Ramsey and another fellow Angel Cordero then broke down the door, WEWS reported. "We kicked the bottom. And she comes out with a little girl and she says, 'Call 911. My name is Amanda Berry.
Ramsey immediately called 911, and as he digested the info he soon realized it was Amanda Berry - a woman he thought had been dead for years- was this missing girl.
Once police arrived, Berry explained there were other women inside. The other two women were Georgina DeJesus who disappeared at 14 in 2004 and Michelle Knight, who disappeared at 19, according to the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
"I knew something was wrong when a litte pretty white girl ran into a black man's arms. Dead Give Away!" Ramsey quipped.
