Man Bitten By Shark Off Ft. Lauderdale!
Monday, February 25th, 2008
A South Florida diver was hospitalized after being bitten by a shark off Ft. Lauderdale.
The Coast Guard said they dispatched a helicopter from Miami after receiving a mayday call from a crewmember aboard a commercial diving boat out of Riviera Beach, around 10 a.m Sunday.
The chopper located the dive boat about 50 miles east of Ft. Lauderdale and hoisted the 50-year old man onboard.
The man was on a dive early Sunday morning when he was bitten by a shark. The Coast Guard flew the man to Jackson Memorial Hospital for treatment.
No word yet on the man’s condition.
