Two

to
safety
by
an

rescuer
Tuesday
afternoon
as
they
almost
drowned
in
the

waters
of
an
Island
Cache
slough
Connie
and
Brian
Chalifoux
aged
four
and
five
were
playing

the
slough
Ice
when
they
accidently
plunged
Into
the
black
water
Brian
floundered
In
the
open
water
but
little
Connie
was
swept
under
the
ice
The
near
tragedy
occurred
about
3
30
pm
Just
below
a
bridge
at
the
entrance
to
the
Cache
As
the
children
struggled
for
their
lives
a
young
man
who
was
walking
by
leapt
Into
the
deep
water
grabbed
the
children
and
hauled
them
to
safety
His
rescue
came
almost
too
late
for
according
to
Mrs
Chalifoux
Connies
face
was
black
with
lack
of
oxygen
cold
and
exhaustion
when
she
was

RCMP
and
an
ambulance
called
by
a
neighbour
rushed
the
children
to
hospital
but
their
rescuer
left
without
waiting
for
thanks
Both
RCMP
and
Mrs
Chalifoux
were
unable
to
identify
him
The
children
were
treated
and
released
from
hospital
a
few
hours
later
badly
shaken
but
otherwise
unharmed
This
morning
they
were
home
at
