Teens Cited After Swift Water Rescue In Clear Creek

By Jeff Todd
ARVADA, Colo. (CBS4) – Two teens have been cited with breaking the law and jumping into Clear Creek with inner tubes. The high and fast water quickly took the tubes away from the teens and first responders had to shut down Highway 6 in order to save them.
“We got a call to respond up Clear Creek Canyon to assist Golden Fire with a swift water rescue,” said paramedic Patrick Jungels, a firefighter with the Arvada Fire Protection District.
