WASHINGTON — Prison inmates on a work crew dove into a freezing, fast-moving creek to save three brothers whose kayak capsized on a creek in Washington state.
The boys, 8, 10 and 16, were kayaking down Salmon Creek in southwest Washington at around 12:30 p.m. on Wednesday when the craft flipped and tossed them into the water, local FOX 12 reported.
A crew of about 10 inmates from Larch Corrections Center, in nearby Yacolt, was doing supervised maintenance work in a public park near the creek and heard the boy calling for help.
