RAMAH - A man who plummeted into Whiskey Bay after a wreck on I-10 was pulled from the water by a person who happened to be fishing nearby.
Emergency responders said the man fell from the Atchafalaya Basin Bridge after an 18-wheeler rammed into a vehicle that was stopped on the shoulder of the interstate. The crash was first reported around 10:30 a.m. Friday.
A passerby captured video moments after the wreck showing people tossing what appeared to be a rope into the water in an effort to save the man.
The Iberville Sheriff's Office said a person fishing near the bridge pulled the victim out of the water and helped get him to paramedics. The victim was alive, though the extent of his injuries was unknown.
The eastbound side of the bridge was closed for about two hours as rescue efforts unfolded and to make way for an Airmed helicopter which landed on the interstate.
