Watch Fla. Deputies Make Dramatic Flood Rescue after Hurricane Ian

Florida deputies formed a human chain to make a daring rescue of a woman who was caught in surging floodwaters caused by Hurricane Ian last week.

The rescue happened Friday when Orange County sheriff's deputies responded to a woman whose car had been swept away by an "extreme current" in flooding where the Little Econ River surged, according to the department. Body camera captured the deputies wading into the rushing waters to pull the woman to safety.

"Perhaps it was kismet that one deputy who rushed to the scene had 200 feet of rope in his patrol vehicle," the department stated. "Five Deputies formed a human chain and used that rope to venture into rushing water 10 feet deep to save the woman."

Following the rescue, part of a nearby road collapsed from the floodwaters that were moving across it, WKMG-TV reports.
