[Rhodes22-list] Local siblings make river rescue - Praised for pulling motorist from Nissequogue

[Michael D. Weisner]

A local family was at the Kings Park Bluff after dinner when an intoxicated driver tried to convert his automobile to a power launch.  They were able to extricate the driver before the car sank.  Fortunately, all are OK (except the car.)

We've seen it before - this is the boat ramp where we launch our R22.  During the boating season, some of the "entertainment" at the ramp is spectacular!
