In a gripping display of bravery and community service, deputies from the HCSO heroically rescued a 91-year-old woman from her home engulfed by over 6 feet of floodwater in Lithia. The elderly woman, stranded and vulnerable as the waters around her home continued to rise, faced a dire situation that required immediate intervention.

With the community of Lithia grappling with severe flooding, the HCSO team was on high alert, ready to respond to emergencies. Upon receiving reports of the woman's predicament, they mobilized swiftly, understanding the gravity of her situation given her age and the rapidly rising water levels.

Navigating through the floodwaters, which have submerged much of the area due to the overflowing Alafia River, the deputies approached the woman's home.
