A girl in her early teens was taken to hospital Saturday after being rescued from a pond in northeast Edmonton. District Fire Chief Ed Pitman said emergency responders received a water rescue call just before 2 p.m. As he approached the pond, Pitman said he saw a group of people trying to help the girl. "Some local guys were trying to rescue her and, from my understanding, got caught in the mud," he said. The ambulance was heading to the Royal Alexandra Hospital, according to Edmonton Fire Rescue Services.
