This evening, Metro Fire was dispatched for a dog that went over the bluffs in Fair Oaks. Our closest boat, our Heavy Rescue team and our Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) team all came together to successfully rescue “Charlie”, a golden doodle mix. Charlie was removed via a high angle technical rescue operation, and brought down to our boat on the river. Charlie was safely returned to his owner without injury and is currently getting a fresh bath and dinner with his owner.
A very Happy Thanksgiving for this family!
