(AP) — A homeless man who was stuck in thick mud near the Rio Grande river in Albuquerque for three days was rescued Saturday after some high school students on a field trip heard him yelling for help, authorities said. However, the man’s newfound free- dom wasn’t going to last. Police said he was wanted on a felony warrant, and they planned to arrest him after he was treated at a local hospital. A group of La Cueva High School students and their biology teacher heard the man yelling Saturday morning from a marshy wetlands area in the Oxbow Open Space Pre- serve, the Albuquerque Fire Depart- ment and police officials said. e students were in the area — about two miles north of Inter- state 40 in Albuquerque — doing a school project. ey called authori- ties and told them that the man said he’d been stuck in the river for three days and could not move, according to a police report. Fire crews and preserve officers re- sponded and found a “male subject stuck on a reed island about a hun- dred yards from the west bank of the river,” the report said. Crews deployed an air boat and used a pulley system to lift the man from the mud and water, and up a hill. Police later identified the man as Clayton Senn, a transient who’d been living near the river. Authorities said they discovered a warrant for Senn’s arrest on suspicion of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, a felony. Senn was taken to an Albuquerque hospital for treat- ment and was to be booked on the warrant upon his release, police said. Details on Senn’s condition were not immediately available.
