Captain America actor sends shield to boy who saved sister from brutal dog attack
Meanwhile, Briefly News previously reported Chris Evans had sent Captain America shield to the boy who saved his sister from a brutal dog attack.
According to the 6-year-old's aunt, Nicole Noel Walker, he saved himself from an attacking dog and rather than let his little sister be harmed, he used himself as a shield and sustained injuries on his face.
He later said:
“If someone was going to die, I thought it should be me.”
Walker shared the post via her Instagram page and tagged Avengers actors to see the bravery of her nephew.
Bridger ended up receiving 90 stitches after getting bitten by the dog. Things took an interesting turn when Evans, who plays Captain America in the Marvel franchise, responded.
