A Dutchess County
state trooper has been credited with saving a man's life in August after he
dove into a pond to rescue him.
The body camera of
Wappinger-based Trooper Francis Rush captured the moment when he dove into the
pond off Westgate Drive in Fishkill.
Trooper Rush
rescued the driver of the car, which was submerged in 15 feet of water.
Troopers say he
had a medical emergency and drove into the pond.
