CHICAGO, IL – Rescue crews pulled a dog from a frigid Lake Michigan near the city’s Streeterville neighborhood on Tuesday morning.
According to Chicago police, the dog’s owner was walking near the 600 block of North Lake Shore Drive at around 10:13 a.m. when the dog ran off.
The CFD’s work doesn’t always involve fires, hazmats & building rescues. This morning, while conducting routine drills, CFD Divers received a call of a dog in the water. A quick calculated response brought this lucky dog safely back to shore from an ice drift 500 feet out. 0 pic.twitter.com/MM9NxT6foE
