From KBTX app:
The day started when 32-year-old April Turner was walking her dog near a creek in Lick Creek Park with another person she met along the way.
"The female indicated that she thought that her dog was in trouble. She entered the waterway in an attempt to rescue her dog. She was able to move her dog to the bank," said Lt. Chuck Fleeger with the College Station Police Department.
But the relief of saving her dog was short-lived.
"She began to become overcome by the force and the level of the water in the swollen creek," Lt. Fleeger said.
The woman Turner was with tried to rescue her.
"She wasn't able to do so due to the high current of the risen waterway. The female was then swept downstream," Lt. Fleeger said.
Search and recovery takes a lot of help from different agencies.
All this planning is necessary to make sure the situation doesn't get worse.
"if they are to become overcome by moving water or things of that nature, then resources have to be diverted from the original search to rescue the rescuers."
Not all of the rescuers had two legs.
A K-9 search and rescue team was also used during the rescue operation.
Unfortunately, the outcome isn't what they hoped for.
UPDATE:
