NEWS RELEASE 12/3/11: Portland Fire Boat Eldon Trinity rescues man from Willamette River in less than four minutes

Marine units from three Portland Fire Stations responded this afternoon to rescue a man from the Willamette River. A standard multiple unit response from different locations: Station 21 (Lower East side), Station 1 (Old Town), and Station 6 (NW Industrial), ensures that patients are located and rescued in the least amount of time.

Rescue Boat 21, the Eldon Trinity, reached the patient less than 4 minutes after being dispatched. Time represents the difference between life and death in water rescues; frigid temperatures increase the risk of hypothermia, the air temperature at the time of the rescue was 34 degrees Fahrenheit. Two minutes later, rescue swimmers from Old Town Station 1, aboard personal watercraft modified for surface water rescue, arrived to provide additional support.

Firefighter Dean Krake explains, "The man was standing aboard a large float along the west side sea wall between the Portland Spirit and the Hawthorne Bridge-he admitted to jumping into the river but did not explain why." The Eldon Trinity maneuvered alongside the float and the man stepped directly aboard. Cross trained as Emergency Medical Technicians, firefighters aboard the Eldon Trinity initiated medical treatment for cold exposure without delay. The patient's wet clothing was removed and he was wrapped in dry blankets.

The Eldon Trinity transported the man to a dock beneath the Hawthorne Bridge and care was transferred to a Paramedic Unit for transport to Providence Hospital; the patient's condition was not life threatening.

It is still unclear why the man jumped, and no patient name is available at this time.

IT WORK 100%....I just got my Marriage fixed, I contacted a real spell caster that helped me change my husband’s heart to love and want me again, and he really did and now we are very happy together. My husband left me for another woman, This was just 3 years of our marriage. The most painful thing is that I was pregnant with our second baby. I wanted him back. I did everything within my reach to bring him back but all was in vain, I wanted him back so badly because of the love I had for him, I begged him with everything, I made promises but he refused. I explained my problem to my friend and she suggested that I should rather contact a spell caster that could help me cast a spell to bring him back , I had no choice than to try it. I messaged the spell caster called dr unity, and he assured me there was no problem and that everything will be okay before 11 hours. He cast the spell and surprisingly 11 hours later my husband called me. I was so surprised, I answered the call and all he said was that he was so sorry for everything that had happened He wanted me to return to him. He also said he loved me so much. I was so happy and went to him that was how we started living together happily again.thanks to dr unity . if you are here and your Lover is turning you down, or your husband moved to another woman, do not cry anymore, contact Dr.Unity for help now..

sincerely i was so sad when my husband was taken away from me  early this year march to be precise, and i was so confused because i love him so much and i wouldn't want to loose him so soon so i decided to look for a possible solution to get rid of the woman behind him  despite knowing it has no remedy as advised by my friends, everyday my  heath depreciate and keeps loosing weight and strength, a friend advised me to try Dr Aluya spell caster, that he have helped her sister and i was reluctant about it until after a second thought i decided to give it a try because no harm in trying and immediately i contacted him he assure me that my husband will be back within few days of the spells,I only sent him my husband pictures and my husband was back to me,the dr also asked me if I want the woman that took him away from me dead,I felt pity for her and said no,this dr is really powerful,I couldn't believe it until my husband came back to me with gifts,if you want his help also,

I was confused and did not know what to do again, rather they got in contact with PRIEST WISDOM.He did a love spell that made my husband come back to me. We are now very much happy with ourselves. PRIEST WISDOM makes him realize  how much we love and need each other .This man is for REAL and for good . He can also help you to fix your broken relationship. I had my husband back!
