\"Drowning<\/p>\n

A man was rescued by Sacramento fire officials Saturday after going underwater at the convergence of the Sacramento and American rivers.<\/p>\n

At approximately 1:30 p.m. Saturday, Sacramento Fire Department crews responded to a call for service near 101 Jibboom St., south of Garden Highway on the American River Parkway, a spokersperson for the department said, after a man was reported as going under the water.<\/p>\n

First responders located the man and rescued him from the water. The man was transported for medical service while receiving CPR.<\/p>\n

No additional details have been released about the incident.<\/p>\n

The National Weather Service urged caution in Sacramento rivers<\/a>, as warmer temperatures are bringing colder waters from mountain snowfall melting. The service said swimmers should not enter cold, fast-running water and should never go swimming alone. It also encouraged the use of life jackets and the supervision of children around water.<\/p>\n
