A schoolboy saved his friend from a watery grave at Gadinje in Venur, 60km from here, on Thursday.

Sujaya, 11 and Adithya, 12, both students of Government Higher Primary School, were walking home after class. As they were crossing a swollen stream, Adithya missed a step on the temporary narrow footbridge and slipped. Sujaya rushed to his aid and grabbed him as he was hanging from the bridge.
