A very observant citizen saved a life today and kept us from being called out.
It was just on the news. Sounds like a very overweight male fell into Lake Pend Oreille near his boat slip. Had another male working in the area not heard the other males cries for help and render aid we would have gotten called.
Its in the same area I have done 8 or more recoveries in over the past 27 years. Five of them were with within 50 of each other and this one was right on top of the last one I got.
The area isnt dangerous at all but the drunkin seniors that go from the bar to their boats are. You have to pass the floating bar before you ever get to the first boat.
Lucky for him and lucky for us. If it hits the paper Ill post the article.
Kudo's to the citizen.
