Maryland Governor To Honor Waterman For Rescue

ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) — Maryland’s governor plans to honor a waterman for rescuing 23 people, including a group of schoolchildren on a field trip, from a boat that sank in the Chesapeake Bay.

The Baltimore Sun reports that Matthew A. Clark, a spokesman for Gov. Larry Hogan, said Thursday the governor plans to honor the “life-saving” actions of Jeremy Shockley of Toddville with a citation.

Clark says Shockley’s “quick response helped to avert what could have been a terrible tragedy.”
