The balloon, which was on its way from Marjala to Mattisenlahti, drifted south along Pyhäselkä and could not reach the shore from Pyhäselkä. Those in the balloon had to alert the rescue service.
The rescue boat tried to tow the balloon to shore, but when the hot balloon gas ran out, the ball began to sink into the water.
The four people in the balloon were rescued in a rescue boat. The rescue department's boat towed the balloon in the water and its basket to the shore of Hasanniemi.
