Disabled Crabber Rescued After His Boat Was Swamped, Leaving Him Stranded for 9 Hours
'I'm crippled, I had a stroke,' Benji Nevers said. 'But the Lord took care of me"NEED TO KNOW A crabber, later identified as Benji Nevers, was stranded in a Louisiana marsh for about nine hours after his boat encountered motor issues He was unable to call for help as his phone was underwater The St. Tammany Parish Sheriff's Office found the crabber and he was taken to the hospitalLouisiana authorities rescued a 57-year-old crabber with a physical condition when his boat was partially submerged in a marsh that left him stuck for about nine hours last week. A spokesperson for the St. Tammany Parish Sheriff's Office (STPSO) said in an email to PEOPLE that the crabber ventured out in his boat on the morning of Friday, July 25. The sheriff's office also said in a news release that he didn't return home from the East Pearl River and was last heard from at 10 a.m. local time. "Around 5 p.m., a family member called to report him missing and that he had not returned as expected," the spokesperson told PEOPLE. The crabber's family told deputies their loved one was partially paralyzed on his left side due to a previous medical condition. STPSO Marine Division members Sgt. Chuck White and Deputy John Hrabley were dispatched to find him, per the sheriff's office. They followed a trail that led to a marsh based on information provided by the crabber's family about his usual launch point and route. It was there that White and Hrabley found the crabber in the water and his sunken vessel about 45 minutes into their search. They discovered that the man's cell phone was underwater and the boat's motor was inoperable. The sheriff's office added that the crabber's medical condition hampered his ability to move as he was surrounded by marshland. 'He was immediately turned over to medical personnel, evaluated, and brought safely home that night,' the sheriff's office news release said. 'This is what we do,' it added. 'And on this day, it saved a life.' The crabber was later identified as Benji Nevers, Fox affiliate WVUE reported. In an interview with the outlet, Never said he was on a fishing trip and approached the mouth of the Pearl River on Friday, July 25, when he found himself stranded. A strong wind and the boat's motor issues contributed to Nevers' dilemma. Waves then pushed the crabber into the marsh and swamped the boat, per WVUE. His cell phone was lost due to the rough waters and there was little traffic among passing boats that day, in an ordeal that lasted nine hours. 'I'm crippled, I had a stroke,' Nevers told WVUE. 'But the Lord took care of me.' Fortunately, Hrabley and White arrived in time. They recalled how desolate the area was. 'He was tucked in the marsh. I saw a little green thing and I said, 'Are you Mr. Nevers?' ' White recalled, per WVUE. '[He] said, 'Yeah,' and I said, 'We're coming to you.' ' A dehydrated and hungry Nevers said he was taken to the hospital. He expressed his gratitude to Hrabley and White for rescuing him. 'They were great people, they took care of me,' Nevers told WVUE. Nevers said that he plans to repair his boat so he can resume crabbing as well as keep his phone in a waterproof case attached to the vessel.
