Trapped group escapes Kentucky cave through neck-deep water
A group of college students trapped by flash flooding on a field trip to a Kentucky cave Thursday walked through neck-deep water to get to safety, authorities said. The 19 people who escaped more than six hours after entering Hidden River Cave included students from Clemson University, four tour guides, and two police officers who became trapped when they tried to rescue the group, Kentucky State Police Trooper B.J. Eaton said.
