Thanks to the teamwork of the Wake County Sheriff's Office (WCSO) and the Wake Forest Fire Department (WFFD), they answered an emergency call when two people who were aboard a boat that was stranded on Falls Lake near Wake Forest North Carolina on Thursday evening.
The firefighters and the deputies were able to rescue the couple who were aboard the boat due to the engine not working.
The persons who were aboard the boat most likely used a cellphone to ask for help, Thank goodness no one was hurt in the rescue mission.
