We're so proud of our Water Rescue Team & crews from Bishop, Durham, Stanhope, & Middleton, who at 5pm last night responded to a vehicle in the water at Westgate. On arrival our crews took immediate action, in what was challenging conditions, to ensure the driver was rescued. pic.twitter.com/27ueGL06yl — County Durham & Darlington Fire & Rescue Service (@CDDFRS)
