TWO RIVERS, Wis. (AP) — The U.S Coast Guard rescued two men from Lake Michigan after their boat began to take on water.

The men were rescued Tuesday afternoon about 12 miles northeast of Two Rivers. WLUK-TV (http://tinyurl.com/75ymyqo ) says the men were wearing life jackets when rescuers spotted their 46-foot boat.

Coast Guard officials say bilge pumps on the boat failed, causing it to take on water.
