HANAHAN, S.C. – When several ducklings got stuck in a storm drain over the weekend, Hanahan firefighters, two Trident Medical Center nurses and a respiratory therapist quickly came to their rescue.

According to the hospital, they didn’t hesitate to crawl more than 100 feet in a wet, hot and dirty storm drain to rescue the distressed ducklings.
