FIRE crews from Boroughbridge and Malton assisted a farmer in rescuing his cow after it had fallen into a river and become tangled amongst branches in Aldwark yesterday afternoon.
The farmer and crews used a variety of saws and animal rescue equipment, before the hauling cow to safety.
A vet attended and the animal was checked for injuries and is expected to make a full recovery following its ordeal.
