Excerpts from wandtv.com:

South Elgin Fire Protection District firefighters rescued a dog that escaped through a window onto a home’s roof.

Crews say the homeowners who live in a duplex weren’t home when the dog made its move. They say the animal broke through a window screen on the building’s second floor, then made its way over to the neighbor’s side of the roof.

The dog wasn’t able to get back to the window it came out of because the roof was steep. They safely managed to get it down using a ladder.
