SPRING LAKE TWP., MI (WHTC-AM/FM, July 14, 2023) – A 15-year-old Spring Lake boy escaped injury after falling off of a jet ski into Lake Michigan north of Grand Haven on Thursday evening.
According to Ottawa County Sheriff’s Sergeant Keith Biros, deputies and other first responders were dispatched to the shore line near North Beach County Park around 9:30 PM. That was near where the unnamed boy was reported missing after his fall, and the deputies were able to hear the teen calling for help from the shore.
After spotting the lad about 60 yards away in the water, the deputies then directed Coast Guard and Spring Lake Township Fire Rescue units to where the boy was, and he was safely recovered and brought to the shoreline. North Ottawa Ambulance workers then checked the youth out, found no injuries, and he was returned to the custody of his parents.
