By Caitlin Castello, Globe Correspondent
Three men who went fishing without life jackets had to be rescued last night when their canoe capsized off Marblehead, authorities said.
The canoe flipped about 100 yards off Marblehead Lighthouse at about 10 p.m., according to Captain Mike Porter of the Marblehead Fire Department.
The three men -- identified as Roberto Tejada, 35, Mario Fuentes, 31, and Rogue Viera, 42 -- were in the water for 30 minutes before a fire department rescue team arrived. The men were treated for hypothermia and
taken to Salem Hospital, Porter said.
