Although the two girls are in stable condition, Ricky died at Temple Street Children’s Hospital early Saturday.

“He was trying to help someone else,” his father Kelly Osagie told the Irish Sunday Mirror. “That’s what happened. My son died a hero. He went in and then that was it. My son is gone but a girl is alive because of him.”

“He always smiled and was happy all the time,” his father added. “He had so many friends. He is a hero, a real hero. I want the world to know what my son did. He was a man.”
