NYPD Officers Rescue Man Who Fell Into Frozen Lake In Brooklyn Park
The New York City Police Department on Tuesday shared video of two “heroic” officers rescuing a man who fell into a frozen lake in Brooklyn over the weekend.
Shortly after 9 p.m. Sunday, the officers from the 78th Precinct responded to a 911 call reporting a “distressed” man walking on the ice of a frozen lake in Brooklyn’s Prospect Park.
Body-worn camera video shows two officers arriving to discover the man screaming for help after falling through the ice. They jump into action, retrieving what appears to be a rescue sled or stretcher, shaped like a ladder, and extend it out over the edge of the ice to the water.
“I got you, I got you,” an officer says as they work to pull the man from the water.
“I can’t feel anything,” the man says as he’s pulled from the water. The man appears to walk under his own power, with an officer holding his arm, to the back of an awaiting ambulance.
An officer tells the paramedic the man was in the freezing water for five to 10 minutes.
