Woman Risks Life to Save Dogs
And VT thought cat people were the crazy ones (Check out the video after the jump). Bourne firefighters interview two of three rescuers who pulled a woman in her 40s from Shop Pond in Bourne, Massachusetts after she fell through the ice along with two dogs. According to Bourne Fire Deputy Paul Weeks at the scene, the woman suffered serious and possibly life-threatening hypothermia.
Neighbors pulled the woman out of the water after hearing the victim's screams for help. One of the rescuers is Linda Wilson of Pocasset. The two dogs were rescued by Bourne firefighters and are believed to be uninjured. The incident happened around 11:00 AM Saturday (01-09-10) morning. (Photo by David G. Curran)
