1897: Superhero Policeman Fogarty and the Crime-Stopping Goats of East Harlem » West Farms
While riding on a West Farms trolley car (like seen here) in July 1896, Policeman Fogarty saw James Harvey stumble and fall into the Harlem River. He jumped from the moving trolley, ran onto the old Harlem Bridge, dove into the water, and swam 150 feet to rescue Harvey. Fogarty lost two revolvers in the river. (Anyone want to go scuba diving in the Harlem River?)
