A man in his 20s was in grave condition after being pulled from the water near the Queen Mary in Long Beach.

The man was seen on the docks about 3 p.m. Saturday, Long Beach firefighter Brian Fisk said.

He then got onto a locked AquaLink water taxi and appeared to walk off the boat’s bow into the water, Fisk said.

Fire units were dispatched at 3:08 p.m. and rescue divers pulled the man out of the water about 3:50 p.m., according to Fisk.

“He was submerged for almost 30 minutes,” Fisk said.
