In a daring rescue at Fort Funston, members of the San Francisco Fire Department safely retrieved a person and multiple dogs from a precarious position on a cliffside. The SFFD cliff rescue units were called to the scene after reports emerged of the group being trapped yesterday afternoon.

The rescue unfolded as the fire crews arrived around 6 p.m. Upon arrival, they found a human and multiple dogs in a dire situation. Less than an hour after their arrival, the SFFD successfully pulled the owner and one dog to safety. Photos later made available showed the man and his dog being harnessed and hoisted up from the cliff, per a report by KRON4.
There was a heightened concern for the remaining two dogs as they were reported to be without leashes, which could have further complicated the rescue efforts. Despite this challenge, SFFD personnel eventually managed to bring both animals to safety.
