A woman and two dogs got stuck in mud at Burrs Country Park today, Wednesday, leading to the fire service being called.
Two fire engines were sent to the Bury park shortly after 12pm but a woman and the two canines managed to get out out of the knee-deep mud before they arrived.
An eyewitness said men who were passing the area managed to help the woman and dogs to safety.
No injuries have been reported.
A Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service spokesperson said: “Just after 12pm this afternoon (Wednesday), two fire engines from Bury central and Whitefield fire station were called to reports of a person stuck in mud on Woodhill Road, Bury.”
“The crews arrived quickly at scene. One woman and two dogs had made their own way out of the knee-deep mud.”
“Firefighters were in attendance for around 15 minutes.”
