SAN DIEGO — A Navy seaman was rescued after he fell two decks into the hold of ship at BAE Systems Thursday morning.
Crews used a crane on the deck to lift the man out and first responders were able to stabilize him but he is reported to have been transported to UCSD Medical Center in critical condition with major head trauma and a broken leg.
