FDNY firefighters rescued a dog on Thursday night after it fell from a pier at the South Street Seaport.
According to one witness, the dog fell after breaking free of its owner’s grasp and running. A crowd gathered as the dog struggled to keep its head above water after falling in. Fortunately for the waterlogged pooch, the FDNY was already on the scene to monitor a fireworks show, and cameras were rolling as bystanders applauded the rescue.
