Three adults and a child complaining of hypothermia were transported from Sandy Point State Park Monday evening.

Firefighters and paramedics were dispatched to the park just before 7 p.m. for the report of patients suffering from hypothermia.

The patients were reportedly operating a jet ski on the Chesapeake Bay when it overturned and they were unable to get it started. The individuals, who were all wearing personal flotation devices, were in the Bay for more than two hours before being picked up by another boater and taken to Sandy Point.

All four patients (41- and 10-year-old males, and 37- and 18-year-old females) were taken to Anne Arundel Medical Center with non-serious symptoms.
