Los Angeles firefighters pulled a man out of Echo Park Lake Friday after he went into medical distress while aboard a boat, according to LAFD spokesman Brian Humphrey.
The name and condition of the man was not immediately released, but Los Angeles police and park rangers worked with the fire department to rescue the man at about 3:50 p.m.
According to reports from the scene, there were several people in rental swan peddle-boats in the lake while the incident occurred.
