She pulled the man to the driveway, and, to her astonishment, recognized him as a homeless veteran.
BRADENTON (FOX 13) - A man was found dead in the flooding that ravaged Bradenton on Sunday.
Deputies say at around 8:45 p.m., a woman called to say she had found the man on Whitfield Ave. and 43rd Court East
"I would hate to hear one of my family members passed away that way," said Spencer, who found the man and his tipped-over wheelchair. "I ran in, grabbed my phone, dialed 911.
At first, she didn't realize what she saw in the water was a wheelchair.
"I thought that my neighbor had a garbage can out there, and I thought that is kind of silly. It was in the water, it was going to float away. I looked a little harder and I realized it looked like a wheelchair."
