Miracle in Cleveland: Charles Ramsey talks about Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight
10 years ago this coming Saturday, Charles Ramsey was among those who became internationally famous as part of the Miracle in Cleveland.
Ramsey says he heard screams coming from the house on Seymour Avenue on that night in May 2013, the night Gina, Amanda and Michelle finally broke out of that house where Ariel Castro kept them captive for almost a decade.
After hearing the screams, Ramsey went to check it out and along with others, helped the girls escape.
WKYC news anchor Russ Mitchell talked with Charles Ramsey the day after the 3 women were found.

God bless him he is living proof angels walk among us 🙏😇❤️ the government should give him a national hero award and the government should pay his bills for the rest of his life. He should never have to worry or struggle for the rest of his life. This man is what all men in America should aspire to be. God bless you sir and your family and loved ones ❤

We haven't forgot about Charles. You are a true hero man. It's been about 10 years since that day but we haven't forgot about you.
I'm from Cleveland. I always gave kudos to Channel 3 WKYC for having Charles in the studio live, on the news, with the main anchors, and let him be himself un-edited and completely natural. No other local TV station would do that for some obvious reasons.

Bro made a threat on live TV on the news knowing that everyone would see it and cared nothing about it you can't do nothing but respect someone like him 💯❤️
He is a hero for saving Amanda as well Michelle and Gina. If wasn’t for his heroic act, she and other two would still be there.

He was at the right place at the right time. I don't think anyone could pull this off but him. So happy that he decided to act and help those girls and that baby out.
His interview reuniting with Amanda is amazing. What a hero.
I love how he doesn't care she's on tv and just says it as it is
Charles Ramsey is such a hero. God bless him.
Saying he isn't a hero is what makes him a hero He didn't want the reward he said, "Give it to the girls because they are the heroes for surviving" and didn't want the attention either

True story. When this was breaking news, I was with my grandfather and while this was breaking, my grandfather mentioned he grew up... literally 2 houses down. Obviously there are different homeowners now, but the look on my grandfathers face when this story broke, broke his heart

He could have accepted “hero” - but he would prefer “example” with the hope he could motivate others to do the same when faced with something serious. Pretty selfless. He has my respect.

He deserves to make heaven, yet Christians will say it doesn't matter if you do good, unless u believe in Jesus u can't make heaven
Yes. Hope someone is checking up on him as well, I feel so bad for the girls!
Just saw this! God Bless this man, he's an Angel!!!
Mr Ramsey is a true gentleman.
Plain and simple. Charles Ramsey is a hero. Charles Ramsey did what probably most of us would have not done. Alot of people wouldn't want to get involved. I might've even ignored the screams. Not deliberately. I'm just glad that Charles decided to go to the house and kick in the door. You never know something like that might happen and you have to think quickly. I'm just so glad that Charles did take the initiative and saved those women's lives. He's a true hero.
I sure hope this gentleman was given lots of emotional support after this incident. That is a lot to process and you can see him trying to get his head around it during this interview. Hats of to you sir, you are a good man. 🙏🏾💕
Love this mans honesty ❤

Agreed…that’s the difference between respecting the function of law and order, and having a sense of ownership over your community in the best way possible. “Not in my house!”.
I applaud him. That area of Cleveland is in poverty and people are focused on their next meal. He could have ignored her yell for help but he didn’t. God bless him!

Love this guy and revisiting this so many years later. I hope he’s well today ❤ so many people ignore screams
Its crazy how something like that can go on right close to you .
A truly honest man, God will bless him!
Michelle Knight was treated a lot worse by the sicko kidnapper AND the news! Not too sure why but I feel so bad for her, rejection even after going through the world's worst nightmare. I bought her book to try to support her in my own little way. I hope all the poor women have happy lives now.
Love this man. A real man
He is a True American
Charles is a great man!!
the dispatch who took the call needs to get reprimanded or fired, it took a second call for him or her to send somebody.
his sense of trust was seriously violated by that experience
Mc Eiht is a hero for our community!!!

real and spectacular interview from this man. I hope he is doing well and prosperous this man deserves a medal and a lifetime supply of his favorite restaurant and free rent where he is this man saved 3 women that was considered dead for 10 years or so
There are good, observant, caring neighbors in this world. Be a good neighbor and be like this man. ❤
You can see this literally affecting him mentally
This man can stand proud knowing he did right 💯
Mad respect
Love everything about this beautiful black king...
I’m from Cleveland, Ohio. Thank God for him.
I think it would do us good to remember that for every monster out there, there is at least one of these guys waiting, not even realizing they are on the roster or that they are enough to save the day, even if they appear to be on the sidelines.
This guy is very humble...
“We would’ve handled that BRO!” Ikdr
Words cant describe how much I admire his realness. I thank you God for sending him at the right time right place even through turbulent circumstances. You are an amazing awesome humble thoughtful and caring man. Just all around a great human being. #AnAngel Thank you #CharlesRamsey #GodBlessU and your family

This dudes a legend, mad respect for him being his authentically self and the news allowing it and embracing it !
This interview is even better than that “Dead Giveaway” version
May God prosper him and bless his heart.❤
“I wanna get my hands on him and then ima be alright” he’s so real for that. U can tell Charles loves and cares for these girls, he became their protector, he wanted to make Ariel pay for what’s he’s done to those poor girls. the coward hung himself in his own cell
Why did they omit Michelle Knight? She was also rescued.

I wondered that too. Someone said she didn’t get as much coverage as the other 2 girls because she was considered an adult when she went missing. But her age shouldn’t have mattered. She was there against her will just like the other 2 girls.
