Broward County officials have released the audio logging tape of a 911 call made by the made who was jabbed in the chest by a stingray that jumped into his fishing boat. James Bertakis was fishing with his grandaughter and her friend when the attack occurred, and he managed to dial 911 and explain what happened as he piloted the boat back to shore. EMS units met him and transported him to the hospital where he underwent successful surgery to remove it. “A stingray jumped in the boat. It hit me,” Bertakis told the calltaker. “OK. Where did it sting you at, sir? Where did it sting you at?” the calltaker asked. “In the chest — right by my heart!” Watch a video report that includes some of the audio here.
