Man Rescued From Water
Published: September 20, 2005
A 35-year-old Auburndale man was rescued Monday night after his kayak capsized at Auburndale Beach and he struggled to make it back to shore, police said.
Auburndale police were called about 6:30 p.m. by a beach-goer who had seen Matthew Durham take his kayak out in the lake earlier, according to Cpl. Mike Ullom.
Durham’s kayak washed up on the beach, but Durham was nowhere to be seen, so the man who had seen his boat earlier called police, Ullom said.
Another man at the scene took an EMT and a firefighter into the lake in his boat, where they found Durham wearing a life jacket and struggling to make it back to shore, Ullom said.
