SAFD: Two teens rescued from creek bed after drinking behind northside church

After firefighters rescued them, they were held by park police until their parents could come pick them up.

First responders rescued two young men after they were found stuck in a creek bed behind a church just after midnight on the northside of San Antonio.

Firefighters responded to the Northern Oaks Church of Christ around 12:16 a.m. for reports of two people in trouble.

First responders say the two underage guys were drinking near a cliff behind the church when one of their phones fell into the creek. Both of them decided to go down to get it, but they got stuck.

In response, a wave of first responders showed up. The drop was deep enough that firefighters had to use ropes and other rescue gear to pull the guys out.

Luckily the two only had minor injuries. Park police held both of them until their parents showed up.

Right now it’s unclear if the boys were charged by police.
