The Fisherman Who Risked Everything | Oakland News
Description
Against all odds, Mike Montoya—a commercial fisherman battling his own trauma and losses—risked everything to save nine lives in San Francisco Bay, stepping in before emergency crews arrived. After a devastating car crash that nearly ended his life, left him with broken bones and a lung infection, and forced him to sell his boat and lose his home, Mike still chose to act. Now, sleeping on a friend’s couch and lacking basic necessities, he’s rebuilding with the help of his buddy Justin, who’s letting him fish on his boat while they restore the vessel together. Friends have launched a GoFundMe to support his recovery, and the San Francisco Fire Department is honoring the unsung heroes who rushed to the rescue.
