Warren Jones, a spokesman for the Rehoboth Beach Volunteer Fire Company, says firefighters and the city's beach patrol responded to the scene about 2:30 p.m. Thursday and were able to rescue the man.

The man was taken to Beebe Medical Center in Lewes.

No further information on the man was available.
