MIAMI (CBS4) - Hip hop singer Sean Kingston continues to improve at Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami, more than two weeks after he slammed into a bridge while riding a Jet Ski.

A Good Samaritan, John Rivera, was on a boat near the bridge and saw Kingston under water after the accident. He jumped in the water and held him until rescuers arrived.

Kingston rose to fame with his 2007 hit "Beautiful Girls" and was also featured on songs by artists including Justin Bieber.
