MCDONOUGH, Ga. — Firefighters in McDonough had to be lowered down into a storm drain to make an unusual rescue.

They saved five kittens who had fallen in. Three off-duty firefighters helped save them.

“This rescue crew chose to go the ‘extra mile’ to help a few kittens when they could have done anything else during their time off of fighting fires. Their bravery is appreciated,” said Marcia Hendershot, director of the Fayette County Humane Society.
