The Buffalo Fire Department rescued a teenage boy from the Niagara River Thursday.

A witness at the scene told 7 News that two boys jumped in the water and the one who was rescued was unable to swim, but a fire department spokesperson said the teen was sitting on the railing of a walking bridge when he fell into the water.

7 News obtained video from the witness which showed the teen clinging to a wooden post in the water until firefighters threw him a life ring.

After grabbing the life ring a ladder was used to bring him to safety.

No injuries were reported.
