The device works! On April 4th of this year, our officers responded to a report of a 75 year old woman who had jumped off a bridge in our downtown area, into the frigid Napa River. In this area, because of near-vertical banks, access to the river by foot is impossible. One of our officers used the ResQ Disc™ (we keep one in each patrol car) and threw it to the woman. She was able to grab hold, allowing the officer to pull her to an area where rescue workers could get to her. Thank you ResQ Disc™!
