A man who was spotted floating in the Hennops River at Die Hoewes in Centurion on Tuesday was rescued by Tshwane emergency services.
Spokesperson Charles Mabaso said rescue services were immediately dispatched to the area after the EMS call centre received information about the incident close to the highway.
“A multidisciplinary team of police, Gauteng EMS and Tshwane Emergency Services managed to rescue the man, who was treated on scene and transported to hospital in a stable condition,” said Mabaso.
He added that the man was spotted around 6h30 by cyclists who said he “looked like a runner the way he was dressed”.
Mabaso said the law enforcement authorities were investigating the incident.
