A man who survived the 9/11 attacks in New York City has died after jumping off a boat in a desperate bid to save a child who had fallen into an icy lake in a Chicago suburb.
Luke Laidley, 43, was rushed to hospital on Tuesday afternoon after being pulled from the waters of Lake Michigan but he sadly later died.
According to witnesses, the Chicago dad-of-three was boating with others on the lakefront when a child fell off a raft being pulled by the boat.
