[VIDEO] Arkansas TV reporter rescues woman after she drives SUV into flood waters

-via the New York Daily News:
A TV news reporter became the subject of his own story when he waded into rapid flood waters in Arkansas to save a stranded woman in her SUV.

Adam Rodriguez was filming a segment in Georgetown Tuesday for KARK 4 News about the floods that have devastated parts of the state when a white SUV drove into the water and was quickly swept away.

Photographer Casey Moore kept the camera rolling while Rodriguez, tied with a rope, braved the fast-moving water, which at one point threatens to pull him under as it rolls over his shoulders.
