Water Rescue - Indian River Inlet

Saturday, October 3, 2015

Chief Brian Martin of your Bethany Beach Volunteer Fire Company reports they were dispatched for a Priority 1 Water Rescue in the 39000 block of S. Inlet Rd, Bethany Beach today at 2:19 pm. Once they arrived, Chief Martin stated several adult occupants were trapped in the water, one on the trucks roof, the other inside the cab of the truck. The operator of the truck had entered a high standing water area and the vehicle apparently became inoperable. One occupant was able to extricate himself while the remaining occupant remained trapped in vehicle. Chief Martin requested the use of their 5-Ton Army Surplus Vehicle. Once the 5-Ton arrived, the truck was winched to an area of safety. Both gentlemen refused medical attention. The truck suffered water damage and remained in the custody of the driver.
