DICKERSON, Md. (WUSA) -- Montgomery County Fire and Rescue have released the 9-1-1 call from Monday's amazing river rescue after a woman was thrown from her kayak on the Potomac.

We still don't know a lot about the woman, except for the fact that she's 31-years-old and lives in Woodbridge.

But Wednesday, we have a much better idea what she was going through when she was suddenly separated from her kayak on a fast-moving stretch of the Potomac near Dickerson, Md.

The call was made by a bird watcher who was standing on the banks of the river and saw the whole thing happen.
