“Firefighters had to rescue an NYPD officer stuck in a tree after the cop climbed up to try and save a cat Monday in Queens. The FDNY responded with a tower ladder and found the officer and the cat about 30 feet up in the tree. Both were rescued ‘safe and sound,’ FDNY says. ‘It was kind of comical,’ said neighbor Jeff Yu. ‘They seemed to be enjoying themselves. There were no rude comments or anything.’ The officer had lit a flare and set up cones on the ground underneath the tree before going up but onlookers ignored them as they gathered and gawked from the ground, said Yu.”
