ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP) - September 26, 2008

A Coast Guard helicopter crew spotted Kevin Showell in a marsh near his 14-foot boat in Big Fish Thorofare.

The state police used a boat to recover the 25-year-old. The Coast Guard says he did not require medical treatment.

His family reported him missing late Thursday night.

Weather conditions overnight were poor as a nor'easter buffeted parts of south Jersey with strong winds and heavy rain.
