The woman decided to take matters into her own hands Thursday and climbed through a manhole into the storm drain. She said she had to climb more than 30 yards to find Olaf and carry him back to the manhole, where a helper lifted him to safety.
Olaf did not appear to be inured.
The rescue came just one day after animal services officers in Memphis, Tenn., rescued a dog trapped 12 feet down in a meat processing pit. The dog, dubbed McGregor, was exhausted but did not appear to be injured.
