Two women rescued from river by firefighters | UK News

Two women – one unconscious – were rescued from a river in Nottingham after getting into trouble in the water.

Nottingham Fire and Rescue Service (NFRS) said it went to Gunthorpe Lock at about 22:30 BST on Tuesday after receiving reports of a woman struggling in the water.

On arrival, one woman could be seen in the river and firefighters entered the water and brought her back to safety, the service said.

An inflatable boat was deployed to search for the second woman who was found unconscious by firefighters, but after treatment from East Midlands Ambulance Service she gained consciousness, NFRS added.

Chris Navin from NFRS said: “I am relieved that this incident didn’t end in tragedy, but it very easily could have.

“Open water may look calm, especially late at night, but it can also be unpredictable. We advise that when around any type of water, you are aware of your surroundings and don’t go too close to the edge.

“If you see someone in trouble in water, never go in after them. Call 999, give them your exact location, and leave it to the professionals – this way, you’re not risking your own life too.”
