Rochester Hills firefighter/paramedics rescued an injured woman who had fallen down an embankment along the Clinton River, utilizing a rope and basket to pull her to safety Thursday morning. According to John Lyman, public information officer for the department, a bystander discovered the woman in Innovation Hills on Hamlin Road and called 911 shortly before 11 a.m. When the rescue crew arrived, she was alert and sitting up on the embankment. The fall was estimated to be 25 feet. Two firefighters went down the embankment to assess her injuries while others set up the rescue equipment and then lowered the basket to them. The woman was pulled up with a rope/belay system and driven from the scene in the department’s Gator ORV. She was then transported to a local hospital for treatment, Lyman said.
