Whitefish firefighters made a dramatic rescue Monday, showing the extra caution we need to take during this cold snap around our lakes, rivers and streams. The Whitefish Fire Department shared this video showing the “B-shift” crews coming to the rescue of a dog that had gotten into trouble on the ice-choked Whitefish River. The rescue swimmer manages to work his way to the marooned dog, busting through the ice flow and then lifting the pooch to open water where he can swim back to shore on his own.

Promising swimmer shot in Rome won’t walk again
Manuel Bortuzzo, a 20-year-old who was shot in front of a nightclub on Saturday night, will not walk again, a doctor at Rome’s San Camillo Hospital said on Tuesday. Bortuzzo, a promising swimmer, underwent a double surgery on Sunday to stop a thoracic hemorrhage and to remove the bullet that had lodged in his spine.
Police said the young man was an innocent bystander who was hit when one or more suspects on a scooter fired shots following a fight at the Qube nightclub in the Axa neighbourhood on the southern outskirts of Rome “It is not possible to regain movement of the legs with the current level of medical knowledge,” said Professor Alberto Delitala, the director of the hospital’s neuroscience department.
