Imagine that you’re driving across a bridge with a rushing river underneath. As you’re crossing, you see a car in front of you toss a sack out the window down into the river. Something isn’t right about it. You think there might be something in the sack that shouldn’t be there. What do you do?
For an anonymous woman in Acampo, California, this scene just didn’t sit well. She and her passenger were worried about what might be in the sack and went down to the Mokelumne River to investigate. What happened next was a desperate struggle for survival. In the process of getting to the sack, the woman herself almost got swept away by the raging river and had to be dragged out by her friend, as neighbor Nancy Roberds told KXTV in Sacramento.
