Early Saturday morning, November 14, Calvert County Sheriff’s deputies responded to the Thomas Johnson Bridge and located a person in the Patuxent River.

The Calvert County Rescue Dive Team joined Solomons Vol. Rescue Squad and Fire Department Fire Boat 3, Maryland Department of Natural Resources Police and other emergency responders in the response. Crews on Fire Boat 3 rescued the patient, who was conscious, alert, and talking, according to flight medics. Maryland State Police Trooper 6 transported the patient for medical care.

You don’t have to face a difficult moment alone.

Check on each other, listen without judgment, and reach out for support before a situation becomes an emergency. If someone is in immediate danger, call 911.

Units: DR12, CMD 12, Special Unit 12, Utility 12
