Visitor pulled from Black Rock waters

A 54-year-old man visiting from South Korea was transported to the hospital in critical condition after he was pulled from the ocean off Black Rock in Kaanapali on Wednesday afternoon, a fire official said.

Lahaina firefighters responded to the 3:12 p.m. call reporting a possible drowning, said Fire Services Chief Rylan Yatsushiro. He said bystanders had brought the man to shore, where he was found to be breathing but not responsive.

Firefighters assisted medics, who transported the visitor to Maui Memorial Medical Center.
