The U.S. Coast Guard was called in to help in the rescue of an Ontario man near Chatham-Kent.
The man was riding an ATV off Mitchell’s Bay when he became stranded.
The Rescue Coordination Centre in Trenton called the Coast Guard in to help with the rescue. They redirected helicopters already in the air.
A rescue swimmer was lowered to help stabilize the man before he was hoisted into the helicopter.
He was taken to Mitchell’s Bay Marina where medical staff were waiting for his arrival.
The man is believed to be in good condition.
