GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) – Three people were rescued on the waters of Green Bay, near UW-Green Bay, Tuesday evening.
The three were paddle boarding without life jackets and the wind got strong and made it hard for them to get back to shore.
One of the people used their cell phone to call for help.
The Green Bay Fire Department used its rescue boat to bring the three back to the South Bay Marina. The Brown County Sheriff’s Department was helping with the rescue from shore.
No one was injured.
On Sunday, 3 Saint Norbert College students were swept into Lake Michigan when waves knocked them off a pier.
One of them was rescued, but two others died.
