MILWAUKEE -- The Milwaukee Fire Department responded to reports of a fisherman slipping off the pier at the McKinley Marina around 8:38 a.m. We're told he was holding onto the pier when an off-duty officer who was also fishing heard the guy yelling.

After being helped out of the water, the man refused transportation to a hospital. Instead he had family members come to get him.
