Rescue

A train is stopped on the trussell crossing Lake Martin Sunday. The train stopped as it approached five people walking across. The five jumped to avoid being struck by the train.

Most have heard the phrase, “A bad day fishing is better than a good day at work.” For two local fishermen, that was the case Sunday as timing and location aligned just right for them to save a family of five.
