A 911 call came in about a man in distress on the Columbia River. He was in need of emergency rescue and at risk of drowning. Klickitat County Sheriffs Marine Patrol Deputies launched the rescue boat and searched for the man.
They just now located him and brought him on board alive. No further details at this time.
A huge thank you to the Sheriffs Deputies and to the Klickitat County Dispatchers for your calm professional communication during this high stress call. Great Job By ALL!
