1010 WINS
Stony Point, NY — A teacher and three 16-year-old Lubavitcher Yeshiva Mesivta (Ocean Pkwy) students wandered off a Bear Mountain climbing trail and had to be plucked from a 200-foot-high ledge by rappelling rescuers while hovering police helicopters lit the face of the cliff.

The climbers “felt they couldn't go up safely and they couldn't go down safely once they realized where they were,” Lt. David Herrick of the New York state park police said Friday. “Basically they froze and didn't want to move.”

They were stuck on the rocky outcropping for more than five hours on Thursday night and early Friday.
