FAIRBANKS<\/strong> \u2014 Authorities in Alaska say a Canadian man is the latest person to be rescued near an abandoned bus made famous by the book and film \u201cInto the Wild.<\/p>\n

The Fairbanks Daily News-Miner reported 22-year-old Matthew Sharp of Manitoba was rescued after he was unable to hike back because of minor injuries and high river levels.<\/p>\n

Alaska State Troopers say a personal locator beacon registered to Sharp was activated early Thursday morning. Troopers responded by helicopter and found Sharp, who was flown to Fairbanks.<\/p>\n

\u201cInto the Wild\u201d chronicled the life and death of 24-year-old Chris McCandless, who hiked into the Alaska wilderness in April 1992 with little food and equipment. <\/p>\n

He was found starved to death in the bus almost four months later.<\/p>\n

The bus has long been a destination for those seeking to retrace his steps.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
