EAST HAMPTON, NY Volunteers stepped forward to save some turtles from a pond being dredged in East Hampton.
According to Karen Testa, founder and executive director of the Turtle Rescue of the Hamptons group, said a good Samaritan called to tell her about the ongoing work at Town Pond in East Hampton; he said there were turtles still in the pond.
Mayor Jerry Larson and East Hampton wildlife expert Dell Cullum, among others, met to map out a plan.
