A man in his 40s voluntarily entered the waters near the Bulles de Grenoble, and was carried by the current. He probably did this to end his days.

He was in the water when I saw him. Witnesses alerted emergency services when he took off his cap and got into a plank-like position on his back.

A team of water rescue firefighters quickly arrived on the scene and managed to catch the victim. They then brought him back to shore, where he was treated and taken to the CHU Grenoble-Alpes. Although he was suffering from mild hypothermia, his vital prognosis wasn't compromised.
