Paramedics pulled a swimmer stranded about 150-200 yards from shore and "beginning to slip beneath the surface" at Eaglewatch Lake in Littleton, South Metro Fire said.
"With no time to wait, one paramedic entered the water wearing a personal flotation device and secured to a rescue rope while his partner remained on shore," officials said. Witnesses reported the swimmer had been treading water for about 20 minutes Tuesday. The swimmer was transported to hospital for evaluation. The paramedics are assigned to South Metro Fire Station 13. [Photo: South Metro Fire]
