CG medevacs injured crewman

NEW ORLEANS - The Coast Guard medevaced a 28-year-old male crewmember May 17 from a bulk carrier vessel near New Orleans. CG watch-standers received notification by personnel aboard the vessel UBC Stavanger that a crewmember was reportedly experiencing pain from an electrical incident. The CG launched an MH-65 Dolphin helicopter aircrew to respond. The aircrew hoisted the man into the helicopter before transporting him to West Jefferson Medical Center in Marrero. The man was last reported in stable condition.
