A woman is in a critical condition after her car submerged into Muckross Pier in Kesh last night.
A nearby police patrol responded and two officers on board entered the lake to free the woman from the sinking car.
A third police officer who had arrived on scene also entered the water to ensure no one else was inside the vehicle - all three officers have been treated in hospital.
Inspector John Gordon said: “At around 10.25pm last night we received a report that a car may have entered the water at Muckross Pier on the Boa Island Road in Kesh.
"The woman was taken to hospital where her condition this morning is described as critical.
"I commend the brave actions of the police officers involved and my thoughts and prayers are with the female and her family this morning.”
