Hooked Barracuda Leaps into Boat, Bloodies Teen Angler
A 13-year-old Port Orange, Fla. boy is recovering after his arm and chest were slashed by a 5-foot barracuda that leapt into his dad’s boat “like a torpedo” Sunday as the two fished in the Atlantic Ocean. Parker King received 27 staples and 17 stitches to his wounds. The incident “is definitely not going to stop me from fishing,” he said. “But I won’t fish for barracuda again.” Daytona Beach News-Journal.
