Coos County, Ore. — Two U.S. Coast Guard crews rescued four people during two separate incidents near Coos Bay Saturday night.
Video from the first rescue operation was taken from a helicopter crew from Coast Guard air station North Bend. It shows the crew hoisting a man stranded on a rock at Shore Acres State Park after the onset of high tide around 9:20 Saturday night.
The man did not need medical attention following the rescue. Two hours later, Sector North Bend received a report of three people stranded along the shoreline of Cape Arago Highway in Coos Bay. A boat crew was able to rescue two women and a man who were caught in high tide.
One of the women was in the water, the other two were found on an island nearby. The woman in the water was not wearing a life jacket and had symptoms of hypothermia.
No other injuries were reported.
