ABACO ISLANDS, Bahamas ā An ABC News producer jumped into floodwaters SundayĀ to help getĀ a group of people to safety, asĀ Hurricane Dorian hit the Bahamas' AbacoĀ Islands.Ā
The ABC News team was in a resort when they heard shouts for help. They went out to investigate and found a man, a woman andĀ two teenage girlsĀ screaming.
AĀ producer decided to use a rope and risk his life to help them get to safety.Ā
"Our producer ... was separated from them by this rushing, this torrent of water," ABC News correspondent Marcus Moore said Monday during Good Morning America.Ā
The ABC News team shouted in unison to encourage them to "Swim! Swim! Swim!" through the raging floodwaters of the hurricane's storm surge.
"He had to swimĀ because it was really a race against time," Moore said. "We were in the eye of the storm, so it was calm, but we knew that within minutes, the rest of the storm would come through."
The video shows the group survived. At least five people died in Abaco Islands during the Category 5 storm. ABC News did not identify the producer.Ā
