On July 6, Marine Interdiction Agents from the San Juan Marine Unit (SJMU) responded to two elderly kayakers in distress in San Juan Bay. High winds pushed the individuals into a dangerous area, prompting them to signal for help. SJMU agents quickly intervened, safely recovering both kayakers and transporting them to shore for medical evaluation.
