Coast Guard Picks Up Swimmer In Boston Harbor

BOSTON (WBZ) ― There was an unusual scene in the middle of Boston Harbor Thursday morning.

The U.S. Coast Guard was called in after a man swam too close to boat traffic right in the middle of the ferry lanes.

Officers safely pulled him on board one of their rescue vessels and brought him to shore.

The Coast Guard wants both swimmers and boaters to exercise both safety and vigilance this holiday weekend.
