Further reports indicate the 82-year-old woman was trapped in her car and it was being swept off the road.

Police confirmed that they received a call at around 8 am that a driver was in distress on Millar Road.

The officers noted that the car was mostly submerged and sinking as the water levels continued to rise when they arrived at the scene.

Acting fast, the three officers could not wait any longer as they removed all the gear they had on and jumped into the water.

They swam through the flooding water and pulled the old lady from her car before it was completely covered by water.

The officers were more than glad to find the woman alert and conscious. She was rushed to a nearby hospital for observation and treatment.

This came even as residents of Macomb County experienced heavy rains on Friday night, all through Saturday morning.

Lady proves her undying love for her boyfriend

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported how a lady became a social media sensation after proving her true love to her boyfriend.

This is after her boyfriend faked his arrest during his proposal to the lady.

The unidentified woman, in a heartwarming video shared on Facebook by OMGVoice Nigeria, engaged a police officer who had ‘arrested’ her boyfriend while they were having a meal together.

The irate lady continued to plead with the police officer to let her boyfriend go.

The police officer had claimed that he was arresting the boyfriend because he was conning people of their hard-earned money online.

In a well-scripted plan which undoubtedly involved the officer, the boyfriend brought out an engagement ring from his pocket.

The unsuspecting lady was astonished as she covered her mouth with both her hands in the unfolding melee.
