TUCSON - A group of Kayakers caused quite a stir when they went for a paddle down the Tanque Verde wash Tuesday afternoon.

According to Tucson Fire Deparment, an outlooker called for help because they believe one of the kayakers was struggling. TFD responded to the scene.

It is not yet known whether any of the kayakers were in danger, but preliminary indications are that there was not any danger. In photos the kayakers can be seen wearing life jackets and appear leisurely.
