The woman was swept away after she tried to get the phone her friend dropped in the river, the friend told FOX 11.
A woman was pulled out of the Los Angeles River in Studio City Sunday, after she allegedly went into the water to pull out the phone her friend had dropped. It happened around 5 p.m., off of Laurel Canyon Boulevard, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.A friend told FOX 11 that the victim was only trying to help her friend out before she was swept away."I dropped my phone, and she went in to go get it and then the water came out of nowhere and pushed her down," she said.
The water had been quickened by a sudden storm in the area. The victim's friend said she was swept away in a matter of seconds.Rescue crews said the woman was taken downstream and was able to briefly stand up before being swept away again. Firefighters tried to throw her a flotation vest, and even lowered a wooden ladder down the wall of the river. She grabbed onto the ladder, but wasn't able to hold on for long. The LAFD eventually sent in a rescue swimmer to pull the woman out.
