WATCH: Dramatic Jet Ski Rescue as Helicopter Pulls Man From Raritan Bay

Keansburg, NJ - Patch reported earlier about a man who had to be rescued by helicopter from the choppy waters of Raritan Bay Thursday night, but now we have video released by the NYPD capturing the dramatic rescue in progress. At approximately 4:58 p.m. Thursday, the NYPD Aviation Unit received a radio call of a person stranded in the waters of Raritan Bay, off the coast of Keansburg, NJ. Two NYPD helicopters responded in search of the victim and within minutes, they spotted him in the water: A 21 year-old man that had fallen off his jet ski. The man capsized his jet ski and was adrift in the bay, the Monmouth County Sheriff's Office said, which also responded.

The NYPD Air and Sea Rescue helicopter hovered 10 feet above the water line and dispatched two divers to make contact with the man. A basket attached to a cable was lowered into the water, and the man was rescued.
