Diamond Engagement Rings

It was a thrilling rescue adventure in Maine, U.S. on the 21st of June as firemen rescued an engagement ring – yes, you read right, an engagement ring. Gloria Woodman’s engagement ring slipped off her finger as she was walking along the street and rolled into a storm drain. She was so upset that she called 911 and in ten minutes flat, they were at her apartment.

The drain grate came off first, then they realized that with so much water, it was impossible to try and get the ring by fishing it out with a bucket like they were doing. The Public Works truck that also came in started to vacuum out the water and then they decided that the best way to go about it was to send someone down. So fire-fighter Mark Roy was sent down and he searched manually. It took two hours but find it they did and the happy engaged couple was absolutely ecstatic.

The diamond engagement ring had a 1/3 carat stone set in white gold and there was not a scratch or mark on it when they got it back. Those fire-fighters are going to be guests of honour at the wedding. It really goes to show that there still are people who will go beyond the call of duty in more ways than one.
