A helicopter pilot has made a dramatic rescue after seeing someone stranded in their car in a flooded creek, just west of Katherine, NT. A police officer was lowered onto the roof of the car to help the driver out of that very precarious and dangerous situation. They then returned to get the driver's dog out of the vehicle as well. Authorities have reminded people not to enter floodwaters.
