2 rescued on Lake Merced after boat capsizes Sunday afternoon

SAN FRANCISCO (BCN) -- Two people were rescued in Lake Merced in San Francisco on Sunday afternoon, according to the fire department. San Francisco Fire crews assisted two people who were on top of a capsized boat, the department said.

A rescue swimmer and a good Samaritan with a paddleboard assisted the people and were able to get them onto the board and swim them to shore around 4:45 p.m.  

First responders were waiting at the shore to medically evaluate them. "Fortunately, both had on life jackets because they weren't able to swim," said the fire department.
