MELBOURNE, Fla. -- A Melbourne police officer and a bystander used a fishing net to help save a couple in the Indian River lagoon on Monday.
One victim was lying on the pier near the Eau Gallie Causeway to fill a bucket with water when he fell in. His wife jumped in after him, but started struggling herself.
A fisherman threw out his casting net to keep their heads above water, while a police officer jumped in to help.

You have to be careful out on those piers. Many fishing piers are located in areas with strong undertoe currents. Good thing a quickthinking fisherman used his net to help them.
