Vermont State Police tell us they arrested 23-year-old Caylin G. Clavier of Easthampton, MA on Saturday night following a vehicle crash.

Police say they responded near the intersection of Vermont Route 11 and Route 30 in the Town of Winhall around 10:10 p.m., when they discovered a 2004 Ford Ranger over the guardrail.

Officers made contact with the vehicle’s operator, who was identified as Clavier.

They say Clavier displayed several signs of impairment, and she was placed under arrest for suspicion of DUI. She was taken to the Manchester Police Department for processing.

She was charged with a DUI and released on a citation, said police.

In a heroic act, a Vermont man leaped into freezing waters on Friday to rescue a dog struggling in the icy Winooski River, the New York Post reports.
Chris MacRitchie, accompanied by his family in Berlin, spotted the distressed dog while going through a Dunkin’ Donuts drive-thru. He quickly climbed down the embankment and entered the river to save the dog.
The courageous rescue was recorded by his son and widely shared online.

“It was one of those moments where you have to make a decision,” MacRitchie said. “I felt I was obligated to at least try to fetch this dog out of the river, as I have two dogs myself, and I would hope someone would do that for them if they were in that spot.”
The footage shows MacRitchie, dressed in a T-shirt and sweats, wading through the icy water as his wife encourages him. Despite the biting cold, his main concern was the river’s depth.
“I didn’t know if it was 20 feet or 2 feet,” he said. “When I broke through and it was waist-high, I thought, ‘OK, this isn’t that bad. Yeah, it’s cold, but I feel this is a very doable situation.’”
MacRitchie successfully pulled the shivering dog to safety, where his wife wrapped it in a sweatshirt. The dog’s owner, Morgan Cerasoli, was overwhelmed with gratitude when MacRitchie called her using the number on the dog’s tag.
Cerasoli, who had been searching for Arizona, her 7-year-old rescue mutt, since Thursday, described her reaction as emotional. “I started crying, and I told him, ‘Oh, my God, I love you,’” she said.
Now reunited with Arizona, who is recovering well, Cerasoli described the rescue as “brave, selfless, and commendable.” She added, “It’s everything we’re meant to be on this Earth.”

Spotting a dog struggling to stay afloat in an icy Vermont River, Chris MacRitchie never hesitated.

He jumped into the frigid waters and waded over to the dog, gently pulling it ashore where his wife, Erica, draped it with a sweatshirt. The dramatic rescue of the dog Friday afternoon in Berlin, Vermont, was caught on video by his son and has been shared widely on social media.

MacRitchie’s son, Ace, first spotted the dog as they were going through the drive-thru of a nearby Dunkin’ Donuts. When they reached the river embankment, the father of two felt he had no choice but to save the pooch.

“It was like one of those moments everyone probably has in their life like you’re going to make a decision,” MacRitchie said. “So, I felt I was obligated to at least try to fetch this dog out of the river, as I have two dogs myself, and I would hope someone would do that for them if they were in that spot.”

The video shows MacRitchie approaching the embankment as the dog struggles to get out.

MacRitchie gingerly steps through the ice and into the river, audibly gasping as he wades about 20-feet toward the dog, which was on the other side of the frozen tributary of the Winooski River. His wife repeatedly shouts “c’mon” to the dog and exclaims “Oh, my God” as MacRitchie lifts the dog, later identified as Arizona, out of the water and onto the icy embankment. He carries it over to his wife.

MacRitchie called the dog’s owner, Morgan Cerasoli, whose number was listed on the dog tag.

Cerasoli said she had been looking for her dog, a seven-year-old mutt who had originally been rescued from the side of the road in South Carolina, since Thursday. She was heading to pick up her daughter from school, when she got the call from MacRitchie

“I started crying, and I told him, oh, my God, I love you, I love you, I love you,” she said, as she sat besides Arizona during an interview. She said the dog has mostly recovered, though a checkup did find it was suffering from Lyme disease.
