Three Aurora police officers and an Aurora fire lieutenant rescued a woman from the Fox River late Friday night. Just after 9:30 p.m., Aurora's 911 Center received a report of a woman spotted floating downstream in the Fox River near the New York Street bridge. Multiple officers responded, along with the Aurora Fire Department, positioning themselves on bridges downstream as they attempted to catch a glimpse of the woman, according to a police department news release. The Aurora police department's Drone Team was also deployed, hoping that a bird's eye would aid in the search. Approximately 11 minutes after the initial 911 call, an Aurora police officer saw the woman floating in the water in the 100 block of South River Street.
