In Houston, Texas an autistic child is being hailed as a hero.  Ten year old Kyle Forbes saved his teacher’s life.  Art Teacher Sherri Lowe and Kyle were alone in her class early Tuesday morning when Sherri began choking on an apple she was eating.  Kyle ran to the rescue and gave Lowe the Heimlich maneuver clearing his teachers airway and saving her life according to reports.

Kyle learned the Heimlich maneuver in cub scouts, and it was reinforced by his father.
