Four kayakers in Christian County are safe and on dry land Saturday after needing a water rescue from James River at the Delaware Town Access Point earlier in the afternoon. Christian County Sheriff Brad Cole said one person made it safely onto a bank and the other three were clinging to a log when first responders were able to rescue them. Sheriff Cole said the water this weekend is high and dangerous, and these kayakers were fortunate to have no major injuries. “It’s absolutely a miracle that they’re still alive,” Sheriff Cole said. “Not to mention that all the rescue workers’ lives that they put in danger have to get out here and do this.” The four kayakers and their raft overturned Saturday afternoon, leaving the four people struggling in the water without life jackets. Sheriff Cole stressed the importance of wearing a life jacket whenever you go on the water.
