RENO COUNTY— Emergency crews in Reno County made another rescue on the Arkansas river on Thursday morning.
Three people who were making a float trip down the river got into trouble, according to Jeremy Unruh with the Hutchinson Fire Department.
The two women and a man started the trip at 4th Avenue and had gone about 100 yards downstream, when they became entangled in some trees.
One of them had a cell phone and called 911.
Hutch Fire put two rescue personnel into a raft and sent them into the area where all three were rescued without harm.
Reno County has now banned all floating down the river due to the high fast moving water.
This is the third water rescue made by Hutch Fire in the river in the past month.
