"eagle-eyed cops to the rescue"
"spotted an injured bald eagle floating on the ice and calling out for help."
Harbor Unit officers patrolling the Hudson River on Tuesday morning found a bald eagle stranded on a floating sheet of ice and calling out in distress. The Harbor Unit boat approached close enough for an officer to extend a catch pole, secure the bird, and lift it aboard the vessel. Officers transported the grounded and injured eagle off the ice to the boat for care. The recovered eagle was taken to an avian rehabilitation facility in New Jersey for treatment and rehabilitation. A shared video shows the approach, capture, and removal of the bird from the ice.
