## Resource

A truck plunged into a 30-foot water-filled cistern near Herington Lake in the dead of night, leaving its driver clinging to a spare tire. A fisherman’s tip led to a multi-agency rescue, including a high-angle ladder operation to pull the man to safety—just in time to get him to the hospital. The real challenge? Extracting the truck itself, which required a full daylight crew, divers, and a heavy wrecker to lift it from the depths. A harrowing, multi-day ordeal that proves even the most routine drives can turn into full-blown emergencies. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
