It's a wedding that a Dover, New Jersey, couple and the Bogota Police Department won't soon forget.
On Saturday evening, bride and groom Sabrina Torens and Connor Reilly got caught in a massive storm while driving to their wedding. Their car became stuck in an area of Bogota prone to flooding, and they called for help. Officer Michael Laferrera responded, and got his car as close as possible to the stranded vehicle. He climbed on the roof, then reached out to Torens, who had climbed out of her sunroof.
