River rescue


Rescue diver Derek Randall carries Marc Matuza, 8, to safety after he and his father and brother were stranded on a rock in the fast-flowing St. Louis River while hiking. Rescuers asked Minnesota Power to reduce the volume of water flowing over the Thomson Dam in order to reduce the force of the current before removing the three from the rock.
