The son followed along the riverbank and was able to help pull the man out of the water about 100 yards down the river with the help of emergency crews, Stein said.
The fire department took the man to Upper Valley Medical Center in unknown condition, although Stein said the man was breathing and conscious.
It is unclear how the man ended up in the water, but police said they believe he likely went in at nearby Goodrich Giles Park.
There was briefly a second search issued for the son due to miscommunication, Stein said.
