Fox11's bird just did a great job on an hour long rescue of a dog in the L.A. River during the rains... Looked like a German Sherpherd in about 2 feet of fast-flowing water stuck in the center...the thing ran all over the place, going way past the downstream rescue point where it finally tired out... LAFD sent a helo with a firefighter attached to a hoist to pluck the dawg out... As the firefighter tried to grab it, it turned and CLAMPED down on the guy's forearm... OUCH...the guy stayed with it the whole way, got the doggie into the hoist, and they lifted the dog out... Once they got it on the ground, the firefighter was hoisted back up and flown directly to a trauma center... I'm sure this will be on youtube later today haaaaa....

The female anchor on the show was full of the cursory "oooohs & ahhhhhhhs" in differing degrees of emotion during the incident...;)
