Woman, 31, is found alive a week after going missing having got stuck in MUD for three days

A Massachusetts woman has been found alive stuck in the mud at a state park a week after going missing.

Emma Tetewsky, 31, was reported missing around noon on June 26 by her concerned family, launching a multi-agency search, including the use of State Police Air Wing, K-9s, drones and boats.  

Tetewsky was believed to still be in the area since she did not have access to a car, had not taken her cellphone with her and was known to pray in the local woods. 

Stoughton Police announced on Monday that the young woman had been found by hikers stuck in the mud of Borderlands State Park, about 30 miles south of Boston.  

Hikers reportedly heard her screams for help in a swampy area but were unable to reach the woman by foot. They alerted Easton police and directed them to her location.

Easton Police Department used ATVs to help free Tetewsky from the swampy mud 

'Three officers waded 50 feet from the shore, through thick brush and swamp, to reach Tetewsky. 

'It is believed that she may have been trapped at that location for at least three days,' Stoughton Police said in a statement.

'Utilizing ATV's, Easton PD undertook rescue efforts to reach Emma and free her as she was stuck in the mud for several days' police added. 

Although alert and conscious when finally freed, Tetewsky was first given immediate medical treatment by Easton firefighters and then taken to Good Samaritan Hospital with serious injuries. She is expected to recover. 

'There were so many agencies involved in the search for Emma over the last week,' the police statement said.

'We thank everyone involved. The public never gave up hope that she would be located safely. She could not have been located without the public's help, ' it added.

Stoughton Police Chief Donna McNamara said: 'If it wasn’t for the public helping us and giving us tips over the last five days, we wouldn’t have been able to locate her. This is the best possible outcome.'

Borderland State Park is known for its many hiking and biking trails as well as other outdoor pursuits such as horse-riding, fishing and golf.
