UPDATE: Details on Stingray Attack!
Sunday, January 4th, 2009
Stuff.co.nz has all the gory details of the stingray attack on 11-year-old Laura Bradley.
The attack happened in knee-deep water near Riversdale Beach on the Wairarapa coast on Friday. Laura suffered a deep 4-inch-long wound to her arm and smaller cut to her leg. Slipping into shock and bleeding heavily, she was driven to Riversdale where a rescue helicopter flew her to Wairarapa Hospital.
Laura needed 26 stitches. Ouch.
That’s a girl?
gosh , thats gotta hurt
., i shouldn’t dignify your comment with a response, but here goes: that was a stupid comment. (disregard if you are 12 years old or younger)
meanwhile, i love her badass pose!
but let’s please not assume that it was an “attack”.
after all, we humans are in their environment… (i know, i know, sensationalism sells, but it also hurts the poor stingray’s rep!
still, i’m sorry she got hurt!
PS i heart this site!
