COLUMBUS--A Columbus woman walking her dog witnessed a man tossing a dog crate into a creek.
She immediately ran to the cold shallow creek to discover a pit bull puppy trapped inside the crate.
The dog named Rio, is now recovering at a Franklin County animal shelter.
"It wasn't until we had it dried off and put into a blanket that the fear actually went from his eyes."
Rio will head to a rescue home and then will be put up for adoption.
