A weather TV reporter in Atlanta interrupted his live report about Hurricane Helene Friday to rescue a woman from a vehicle stranded by rising floodwaters. During the live shot, FOX Weather meteorologist   Bob Van Dillen says he called 911.  She can be heard screaming as he tries to assure her that help was on the way. He tells the camera that he’ll be back because he’s going to try to help her himself. He tells Fox News in an interview later that he dropped everything, took his wallet out of his pants and waded through the water to the woman.
