Fishermen help rescue man who had been trapped in crashed truck for nearly a week

"Quite frankly, it's a miracle that he's alive," Indiana State Police spokesperson Sgt. Glen Fifield said during a press briefing Tuesday, after the 27-year-old driver was freed from the truck with severe, potentially life-threatening injuries. The two fishermen were scouting Salt Creek in Portage for fishing holes Tuesday afternoon when they saw a vehicle partially in the creek underneath the I-94 overpass, Fifield said. "I looked inside and moved the white airbag and there was a body in there," one of the fishermen, Mario Garcia, told reporters during the briefing.
