An heroic off-duty firefighter leapt into water to save an elderly woman trapped in her car.
The woman, 82, reversed her Hyundai over a nine-inch wall into the river creek at the east end of the Tollesbury swimming pool.
Stuart Bibby, who has been a retained firefighter in Tollesbury for nine years, jumped into the water and forced open the door.
