EARNS BRAVERY AWARDS
The four men who attempted to save James McAllister when his car plunged into the Millstone River will be honored for their bravery.
It is reported in the local press that Michael Anderson, Brent Blackmore, Glenn Watts and Shane Nicol will receive bravery awards from the Lifesaving Society at their 96th annual awards ceremony this Saturday in Vancouver.
The event recognizes BC residents for their bravery in water-related rescues. A total of 26 recipients will be honored at the ceremony.
The men braved freezing waters in January in a failed attempt to rescue James McAllister from his car before it sank into the river.
Constable Nicol points out that people need be mindful of the victim rather than the rescue effort.
