Chennai: Four fishermen, who fell into the sea after their boat capsized, were rescued by the marine commandos of the Tamilnadu Fire and Rescue Services (TRNFRS) department on Wednesday.
Police sources said, the four fishermen, who ventured into the sea for fishing early in the morning, were returning to the shore when the boat capsized.
Acting on information, a six-member TRNFRS marine commandos team, who were stationed at the Marine Beach Rescue outpost on the shore, equipped with buoys and life jackets, swam into the sea and rescued them.
Bringing them to the shore turned out to be a challenging task as all the four fishermen were entangled in the fishing net in the impact of the capsize.
Two of the fishermen were badly injured and were admitted to a hospital.
