Man Drowns In Inner Harbor

BALTIMORE (AP) ― A man is dead after falling into Baltimore's Inner Harbor.

Baltimore fire department spokesman Kevin Cartwright says the man was in the 1400-block of Lancaster Street in the Harbor East area when he went into the water around 11:30 p.m. Friday. It's unclear whether he jumped, fell or was pushed.

Another man jumped in to try to rescue him but was unsuccessful.

Rescue crews pulled him out of the water unharmed. Within about 10 minutes, they found the missing man, who was unresponsive. They performed CPR and took him to Johns Hopkins Hospital, where he died of an apparent drowning.
