A dramatic rescue operation in Texas<\/a> saved a young woman’s life after she had been trapped for days in a steep ravine.<\/p>\n

At about 5:25 p.m. local time on June 28, a young man heard faint cries for help coming from a wooded area behind a nearby high school.<\/p>\n

While investigating the sounds, he found a young woman who had been trapped in a ravine for days, stuck in deep mud and sewage.<\/p>\n

The Dallas Police Department<\/a> and Dallas Fire-Rescue immediately launched a joint operation, with first responders facing 104-degree heat and navigating a quarter-mile of treacherous terrain to reach the woman.<\/p>\n

In a statement Monday, the Dallas<\/a> Police Department praised the heroic joint effort.<\/p>\n
