Car into the River in Salisbury near Market Street Inn
At approximately 1130 hours today, the Salisbury Fire Department was alerted for a reported vehicle in the river by Market St Inn. Units arrived to find a single vehicle in the river with confirmed occupant still inside. Divers were able to quickly attach a winch cable from Rescue 16 to keep the vehicle close to shore and from sinking any further. It took crews approximately 15 minutes to remove the combative patient from the vehicle with assistance from Salisbury PD. Patient was then transported to PRMC for further treatment.
Neither came from Waverly across Carroll St and floated over the Market St. the fire boat can’t go under the Mill st and circle Dr bridges. Maybe his gps said go straight.
Good job guys!
ReplyDeleteWhere's the fire boat?
ReplyDeleteDrunk went for a swim...forgot to exit his car!!!!
ReplyDeleteDid they use the fire boat?
ReplyDeleteSeriously 10 people? Waste of money. I could have done that solo.
ReplyDeleteWhere was the fire boat?
ReplyDeleteAh yes the fireboat in Crisfield under a capo tarp? What a joke they probably will say the tide was to high to get it under the bridge!
ReplyDeleteThe fire boat is sitting in its slip at the Salisbury marina.
DeleteReceiving a GRANT is free. Maintaining what you just got for free is not.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, we have a lot of stupid people in local Governments and Ocean City leads the pack.
Kudos, great job of rescue. Hapless victim will probably be ungrateful as well.

Ha Ha Ha 10:59 sober up before leaving Market Street Inn, remember to put your car in REVERSE!
ReplyDeleteGlad he/she ended up in the river and not out in traffic.
DeletePublic Safety comes to rescue an idiot and his car, and then the idiot becomes combative? They should have left him right there.
ReplyDeleteAnother cautionary tale. See how it works?
ReplyDeleteRelease the name!
ReplyDeleteAlzheimer's patient or a drunk?
