Firefighters to the rescue of child stuck on playground

EDMOND, Okla. (KFOR) - During times of need, we often count on first responders for help.

When you see firefighters, you might think about house fires, grass fires, or even the rescue of a beloved pet.

However, fire crews with the Edmond Fire Department recently responded to a local playground to save a child.

"Our job is unpredictable. Some days we put out fires. Some days we climb playground equipment to help get someone unstuck," the Edmond Fire Department posted on Facebook.

A child began trapped on a rope course at the playground, and crews had to untangle him from the equipment.
