PHILADELPHIA (KYW Newsradio) — Philadelphia firefighters made a dramatic river rescue Tuesday afternoon in Center City.
It was just before 2 p.m. when first responders rushed to the Schuylkill River at the Market Street Bridge, where they found a person in the water clinging to the wall of the bridge.
A life preserver was thrown down and the individual was able to grab on to it, before two firefighters lowered themselves into the river, using ropes and rigging.
