A homeless ex-con rescued a lost child he spotted wandering through the streets of Miami late Wednesday night — earning him high praise from officers, who warned there was no telling “what would have happened” to the boy if he hadn’t stepped up. Arnett Johnson has slept on the same bench in Miami’s Allapattah neighborhood since he was released from prison six months ago. On Wednesday, Johnson was stunned to see a young boy walking around on his own just before midnight, according to Local10.

When two campers in the Colorado backcountry thought they were being stalked by a mountain lion last week, Clear Creek County deputies decided to mount a rescue themselves. In a social media post, the Clear Creek County Sheriff’s Office said, “We admire Alpine Rescue Team so much that we wanted to be like them.” According to the sheriff’s office, the two campers were on St. Mary’s Glacier late Thursday night when one of them reported they were being stalked by a mountain lion. The camper had left the campsite to call for help, and a sergeant and a deputy took an ATV to meet them at the trailhead parking lot.

First responders rescued a horse from an overflowing creek near Marengo, Illinois, northwest of Chicago this weekend.

Early Saturday morning, the Marengo Fire & Rescue Districts were called for an animal water rescue in the 22900 block of Anthony Road in unincorporated McHenry County near Marengo.

Firefighters and sheriff’s deputies found a horse in Coon Creek, standing in floodwaters about 600 feet from the nearest shore, the fire and rescue district said. Coon Creek overflowed its banks during recent storms, and the horse was believed to have been swept away overnight Friday into Saturday, the district said.
