A Roosevelt Island Tipster reports on the Jet Ski rescue:Jet Skier Rescue Underway @CitizenApp
Ed Koch Bridge 4:27:35 PM EDT
There were two jet skiers that had no gas so they had to wait to be towed back! There were 12 fire trucks on the FDR and four fire trucks over by the Roosevelt landing, waiting to see what they were going to do!I asked one of the NYFD who pays for this? He just looked at me! I guess tax payers! There were four ambulances, don’t think anyone was hurts!
