Police officers from Hudson City Police Department successfully rescued an injured bald eagle from the icy waters of the Hudson River earlier today. The majestic bird was spotted by a passerby struggling to stay afloat near the riverbank.
The officers, identified as Sgt. Mark Johnson and Officer Sarah Miller, responded to the call for help promptly. Using a specialized rescue boat, they navigated the icy waters to reach the distressed eagle. With great precision and care, they were able to pull the eagle out of the freezing river and bring it back to shore.
According to Sgt. Johnson, the eagle appeared to have an injured wing and was unable to fly. The bird was subsequently transported to a local wildlife rehabilitation center for further evaluation and treatment.

Johnson and Officer Miller for their swift and brave action in rescuing the bald eagle. “Our officers are dedicated to protecting all members of our community, including our feathered friends.
