man down in marblehead

was out this am for a couple hours of darkness and first light fishing. as i was walking to my truck i saw some flashing lights up on the road and assumed my truck was getting towed. turns out it was an ambulance and fire truck. about 4 guys were trying to get their friend out of the water for 45 minutes and could not so they call 911. Authorities arrived and they were able to save him. tossed him in the ambulance and took him to the hospital.

as i was packing up i had to jump the mini van they came in because they left their headlights on. i got the whole story then in broken english. 5 guys fishing from 9 pm to 5 am last night. all of them in jeans, sneakers, and no shirts. the victim was going to pull a fish out of the water and slipped in, got sucked out, then banged up against the rocks repeatedly for 45 minutes. they all thought he died.

not prepared at all for those conditions. look for a report in the marblehead police log.
