2nd swift water call of week. Low lying roadways, areas flooded The Flood of July 6-7, 2018: Rescue requested. Called off when subject made safe exit himself. In both instances of rescue requests, drivers had extensive knowledge of streams and danger. THIS IS A SERIOUS SITUATION this morning, folks. TURN AROUND, DON'T DROWN Photo, left: Next Earlier Story, rescue: Breeding Area Volunteer Fire Department Swift Water Rescue team rescues pickup truck driver By Mike Keltner COLUMBIA, KY. (Thu 7 Jul 2016. 5:39amCT) - This morning marked the second swift water rescue call of the week at 04:30amCT, on Sulphur Creek Road, in Adair County, KY. The response was cancelled due to the subject making safe exit himself. I would like to remind everyone that the low lying areas are flooded. Please be mindful of flooding and no matter how safe or how many years you have travelled the roadway it is dangerous when covered with water. Both recent rescue calls have involved subjects that had an extensive knowledge of the area they attempted to cross. "Turn Around, Don't Drown" Protect your life and the lives of the responders that come to your aid by not attempting a flooded crossing. Mike Keltner, Director, Adair Co. Emergency Management, 107 N High Street, Columbia, KY 42728 This story was posted on 2016-07-07 05:23:35
