TULSA -- Saturday brought some unexpected rainstorms along with a dangerous guest.
After hearing a loud crack of thunder while fishing in the Arkansas River, Daniel Precidio looked over to the men fishing near him and noticed something was wrong.
Precidio says he immediately rushed to help.
"His brother started yelling at me for help and I got in my kayak and paddled over.", said Precidio.
Firefighters arrived on scene and saw the men sitting on a rock in the middle of the river.
They say the man couldn't move his legs.
"By the time we got back to the shore he was able to start wiggling his toes move his legs around. said TFD Cpl. Justin Flake. "By the time we go the boat off the ramp he could actually walk on his own."
