A woman whose car entered the River Trent in Nottinghamshire was rescued by three "brave" men, police say.
The emergency services were called out to the river in north Nottinghamshire at around 3.45pm on Tuesday, April 13.
A vehicle had entered the river at Dunham-on-Trent.
Three men swam out to the car and rescued a woman from inside as it floated down stream.
A fire service boat was launched to check the vehicle and area and no-one else is thought to have been inside.
The woman is receiving medical treatment and is not currently believed to have suffered any serious injuries.
Inspector Paul Shortt, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: “I’d like to praise the members of the public for making a quick and brave decision which helped save the woman’s life and the Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire emergency services for their swift response.
“We’re very grateful to these men for their actions and in the true traditions of the police service we will be seeking to acknowledge them for their bravery.
“Enquiries are ongoing to understand the full circumstances surrounding this incident, including how the car ended up in the river.
"I’d ask anyone who saw what happened, anyone who has CCTV footage of any drivers who may have captured dashcam footage to please call Nottinghamshire Police on 101, quoting incident number 467 of 13 April 2021."
