The 29-year-old Jacob Roberts who has a broken leg said authorities that he stumbled into the near-empty reservoir as he tried to escape a dog that chased him through the village.

“Jacob’s calls for help were heard by a local who was going to feed his cows,” local search and rescue chief Gede Darmada told AFP.


"He looked thin and injured," South Kuta police chief Yusak Agustinus Sooai said after the Briton's rescue on Saturday.

Authorities took Roberts to a nearby hospital for treatment.
