Solano, who teaches math at Roseland University Prep High School, says the last video from her home on Mocha Lane was transmitted at 3:10 a.m. just 40 minutes after the unknown man awakened her.

"I want to find him," Solano said. "He saved my life. He just kept knocking until we answered. I think he heard the dog barking inside, and that's why he wouldn't leave."

The final images from her home show sparks flying past the front door, and by dawn, the home was one of the thousands of North Bay residences destroyed in the fires. Solano says she managed to get back into Coffey Park the next day and found her home still smoldering.

She says two students from her high school also lost their homes.

"They were in my neighborhood. They were renters. No insurance," she said. She worries about how they and their families will manage. As for herself, Solano says there has been an outpouring of help from her students.

"I had many students and parents text me and email me. They have been wonderful," Solano said. "The kids have offered me apartments, they have offered me money, food, they say, 'Come by!' They send me their address. It was overwhelming."

She says right now she's staying in a small flat belonging to a friend of hers. The friend's tenant had just left for the Marines, so the place was open. Solano's border collie, Maisey, isn't too happy about being cooped up, but Solano is grateful for a place to stay.

And she is intent on finding the young man who saved her, the one in the video.

"I’m going to find him," she says. "The camera takes pictures, so I have a picture of his face. I’m going to find him."
