Man rescued from Delaware River by passersby, first responders
Good Samaritans helped police and firefighters save a man from drowning near a pier on the Delaware River over the weekend, authorities said.
The man was rescued from Freedom Pier in Gloucester City in Camden County, local police said Monday.
Police responded to the pier off South King Street around 12:10 a.m. Saturday. Several people were on the pier’s south side attempting to rescue the man and keeping his head above water until first responders arrived.
Three police officers secured a life vest around the man, authorities said. Firefighters arrived and helped lead the man to a nearby marina, where he was removed from the river and brought to a hospital.
Police did not say how the man ended up in the river or his condition after he was rescued.

Syracuse took care of business in its season opener, beating an overmatched Binghamton team by 38 points. True freshman Kiyan Anthony was the story, as he scored 15 points in his collegiate debut.
The son of Carmelo Anthony was thrust into a larger role when J.J. Starling — the Orange’s leading scorer last season — went down early with a lower-body injury. Anthony played a team-high 29 minutes, shooting 6-of-10 from the field and 1-of-3 from beyond the arc.
There’s no official injury update for Starling yet, though Syracuse coach Adrian Autry said he “would be fine”. Anthony would start in Starling’s place if he were to miss Saturday’s game against Delaware State. Carmelo couldn’t attend the opener because of his NBC analyst duties, but Kiyan confirmed he’ll be in attendance for Saturday’s game.
