Body camera video shows first responders rescue woman, dog from Intracoastal

Video shows rescue of woman, large dog from intracoastal waterways

HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. — Newly released video shows first responders rescuing a woman and her dog from a Broward County body of water.

It happened on Thursday evening after they were found in the Intracoastal Waterway near Hallandale Beach.

In the video, a rescue crew member is heard asking the woman if she went in the water because of her dog.

Crews ultimately used different types of ladders and floating devices during the rescue.

“I guess she jumped in because the dog was trying to come out,” said witness Dimitry Shaposhnikov. “It was low tide, so at that point for her to even get to somewhere was almost impossible. I didn’t even see a ladder or anything to come up, so she was stuck.”

Afterwards, the dog was seen wagging its tail while near its owner back on dry land.

No injuries were reported.
