Some quick-acting Port Authority police officers rescued a dog that got its paw stuck in an escalator at a Jersey City PATH station Wednesday, authorities say.
Officers Anthony Manfredini and Matthew Maiello were at the Journal Square PATH Station around 1:15 p.m. when the two heard a woman s panic screams, followed by a yelping sound. They race to the source of the noise and found a dog whimpering, its left paw caught in the bottom of an escalator at the station.
