Seems we've had a quiet fall thus far for waterfowl/boating accidents. This guy is beyond lucky.
[h=1]Duck hunter rescued from capsized canoe near Medina, ND[/h][FONT="]Tuesday, November 06, 2018 9:14 a.m. CST by Don Haney[/FONT]
Photo: MWC[FONT="]JAMESTOWN, N.D. (KFGO) - A close call for a duck hunter. The Pennsylvania man's canoe capsized in a slough in the middle of a cornfield south of Medina, North Dakota on Monday.
Stutsman County Sheriff Chad Kaiser tells KFGO News his hunting party discovered him about 100 yards from shore, clinging to his canoe in the deep, cold water, without a life preserver. The hunting party called 911 and deputies responded quickly. One deputy using rescue gear swam into the icy water to the overturned canoe and was able to get the hunter back to shore.
He was taken by ambulance to the Jamestown hospital to be checked for hypothermia and later released
