Lewisville firefighters came to the rescue of a family of ducks on Thursday. The firefighters were finishing a workout when they noticed a duck standing near a water overflow drain, quacking loudly and swimming back and forth.
One of the firefighters walked over to the duck and discovered the problem: three small ducklings had fallen into the drain and were unable to climb out. The firefighters worked together to safely retrieve all three ducklings from the drain.
The ducklings were reunited with their mother, and the whole family safely waddled off together. The firefighters also used rocks to create a barrier around the drain to keep future ducklings from falling in.
