Police in North Carolina had their hands full dealing with the aftermath of Hurricane Matthew, which brought heavy rains and major floods to the coastal state. Many civilians became stuck in the torrential flooding and police were called to hundreds of emergency situations, rescuing hundreds of citizens from the extreme weather. Footage courtesy of the Fayette Police Department shows one of the most heart pounding rescue operations of the weekend. Authorities on patrol in the flooded streets noticed a woman calling for help next to her half-submerged sedan. Responding to the call, police realized that the woman's young son was still in the vehicle and were able to pull out the toddler before matters became worse. One officer captured the heroics on camera. At least four people have been reported missing as officials scramble to respond to hundreds of pending emergency calls. Mayor Nat Roberson declared a mandatory curfew from 7pm to 7am in response to the number of rescues carried out by emergency workers.
