YORK COUNTY, Pa. - A duck family is reunited thanks to two passers by headed to the mall.  Two teens were headed to the York Galleria Mall at 2899 Whiteford Road just before 2 o'clock this afternoon when they noticed a duck which kept circling a storm drain.

Curious about the strange behavior they got closer and heard the sounds of the ducklings.  They apparently fell into the storm drain.  But the mother duck would not leave.

They called 911 and York Area United 89 firefighters were dispatched to the scene. It took about about an hour to rescue eight ducklings from certain death.  The grateful mother duck gathered her brood and went on their way.
