Five rescued after water sweeps van
EMMITSBURG, Md. - Two adults and three children, including an infant, were rescued from a van swept off the road by high water near Emmitsburg on Tuesday night, according to the Frederick County Sheriff's Office.
Deputy First Class James Moxley was stationed in the 17200 block of Annandale Road at around 6 p.m. because of high water when he saw a 2004 Kia van heading east, toward him, get swept off the road, according to a prepared release from the sheriff's office.
The driver rolled down a window, yelled for help and told Moxley there were babies inside, police said. The water had risen to the windshield so Moxley entered the water to try to calm the people in the van and let them know help was on the way, police said.
Emmitsburg Fire Co. 6 used a ladder truck to rescue the five Emmitsburg residents in the van. They included the driver, Jessica Wolfe, 19; Brentanon Wolfe, 20; a 13-year-old girl; a 21/2-year-old girl and a 4-month old girl, police said.
The 4-month-old was taken to Frederick Memorial Hospital for a precautionary checkup, police said.
