Members of Newberry Fire and Rescue freed eight young ducklings from a storm drain

early Tuesday morning. The firefighters responded to an anonymous call that ducklings
were trapped below a storm grate near the intersection of North Main and Garden Court.
When the crew arrived, they noticed a mother duck circling the storm grate. Eight
ducklings were then found trapped below it. The firefighters worked quickly to remove the
grate, free the ducklings, and reunite the family.
