A Vermont state police officer was recorded plunging into icy waters to rescue a drowning 8-year-old child.
Vermont State Police released on Friday footage of Trooper Michelle Archer making the daring rescue on Dec. 17.
“There wasn’t a whole lot of thinking going on. Something was taking over – training. It was the opposite of panic,” Archer told local outlet Vermont News First.
Archer, Cote, and the property owner who assisted in the rescue were commended by Vermont State Police for their conduct.
All three received the state police’s Lifesaving Award for their actions.
