A car got stranded in high water early Sunday morning, and the two occupants had to be rescued.

According to information from the Kenton Fire Department, firefighters were dispatched at just past midnight to the 100 block of Silver Street where the car stalled in around three to four feet of water.

Firefighters made it to the vehicle and helped the occupants make it to dry land.
