Letter: They should pay for that ‘rescue’

SUN JOURNAL • April 25, 2020

The three anglers who spent the night in their vehicle after getting stuck on the Lincoln Pond Road in Parkertown Township sunk in a soft spot. How much did that “rescue” cost? There was an Inland Fisheries and Wildlife plane and pilot involved in spotting the vehicle, a game warden and four Border Patrol officers who went in and winched the vehicle out, as well as Rangeley Fire and Police Departments and the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office — all of whom started searching in the morning. What those three people did lacked common sense and, in “rescues” like that, they should be made to pay for it. ~ Fern Bosse, Norway
