Family Braves Carolina Floodwaters to Rescue Elderly Man and His Dog

A South Carolina family waded through rushing floodwaters to rescue an 87-year-old man and his little dog.

Tom Hall and his family had been routinely checking on neighbors during the recent flooding when they noticed a car sinking in the water. Praying it was empty, Hall waded out to check and saw George Osterhues waving back at him.

Osterhues and his dog, Tila, had been in the car for two hours already, swept off the highway by flash flooding while en route to Florida. It would take at least another hour to pull them to safety.
