First responders in Hackensack teamed up to save several ducklings after their morning waddle through a local neighborhood took a wrong turn into a storm drain.
Around 6 a.m. Tuesday, members of Hackensack Fire Department Engine 5 responded to South Lake Drive where the family of ducklings slipped below the storm grate.
Within a short time, firefighters were able to successfully remove a total of 11 baby ducks from the drain, Fire Captain Kurt Nemeczek told News 12. He said the "ducklings were reunited with their mother and left the area."
