Just after 7pm on Wednesday, Marine 5 was special called for the report of a long fall along the shore of the Susquehanna River, just south of Port Deposit. Marine 5 was underway shortly after dispatch & was advised by Cecil Deputy Chief 7, that Water Witch Volunteer Fire crews were on scene with a teenage male that had fallen approximately 60 feet from a cliff. Upon arrival of Marine 5, the patient was packaged, loaded and transported to a nearby marina to meet the medic unit. The patient was then transported to Station 72, where he was then airlifted to a local trauma center by Maryland State Police Medevac. Marine 5 operated for approximately one hour, before returning to its slip at the City Park.
