On February 4th, 2025, first responders of Valuchia County responded to reports of a boat spinning in circles on a lake with an unconscious person on board. Uh there's like a couple of parking spots back there, but yeah, I don't think there's a [Music] Where's your guys? [Music] I'm kind of curious as to why it's like bogging and then it goes and then it bogs. It looks like there's looks like there's water. It's like [Music] we're trying to see if we got access over there. Okay. Where's your guys' closest boat? Uh, it's coming from Daytona. Oh yeah. Both units on a freaking BLS medical call and they can't get Oh, do you guys have a uh have a drone up? No. No. [Music] I just got off the phone with the lieutenant from squad 35. Looks like central broke them free. They're had calling ahead of them. Copy that. Keep them coming. On scene. They're advising. Is that like private property down there? It's No, it's not. It's not private property, but it's unless if we can I mean, it'd be kind of tough to get a you know, you don't you don't want to really walk into like somebody else's boat. They said they said they said that it looks like there's one person on board underneath the steering wheel. That's what they said. said they said I don't know if you saw the call notes but I swear to God there's somebody in that boat. Yeah, it said he said that per the call notes it said that there was somebody on on there was one person on board but it was they were tucked up underneath like the steering [Music] wheel one alpha 22 central Florida tag I'm sorry sir it's going to be an Illinois tag Were you guys on that boat? There's somebody on it. Not us. There's somebody on it. Yeah, it looks like it. Yeah. Just signal 14. There is someone in the boat laying down. Looks like they're unconscious. It's still doing circles right next to the shore. They just Oh, you guys steering wheel. You can't straighten it out. His hand is only doing notice. Maybe he doesn't realize. Hello. Hey. [Music] Hey, sir. [Music] crashing over here. Hey, see like he's moving so like jerks almost [Music] that motor is probably getting close to to bottoming out too. As shallow as it gets toward the shore. I He probably fell on his head. He's down in there now. Hey, pretty close to me. Just camping way over here. [Music] You want me to help the river unit? We don't have a Huh? You want me to help the river unit? What? Like when they launch to get the boat? Yeah. Help the river unit. Them gators ain't going to bother you.

There's a kill switch usually right next to me. So at this point somebody looks like his foot was moving. His foot was moving. I thought his foot was moving though. Oh the moving for him. So I'm wondering would it be better for us to take it and drive it back to shore or just carry him out through here? Like I guess it would depend on how the Yeah. Say how mobile the boat is. If it's if we're able to get it, it'll be quicker just to get the boat back. That's what I was thinking. Cuz otherwise we got to carry him through all this all this stuff. That's kind of what I was getting at. It might be faster. Say if you you can get maybe one of us to drive it. You can get one of you guys to kind of start us. They're coming from the boat barn. Be about the same when we get here. They're coming code now. So good. We should have a straight shot down. He's uh he looks like he's about to hit the shoreline. I don't know. I'm wondering like when it when he'll bottom out. Hey, we tried calling to him. He like moves a little bit but it's not he's on the floor. Yeah, he's laid out. We try to call him to him.

Darn it. His head is underneath. I can't see his face at all, but his right arm is [Music] moving. Looks like he looks like he now. He's moving out. Yeah, that's what I was saying. I saw you cuz he was like tense between the side of that boat, but he's definitely trying to move around. [Music] Yeah, it's a shame there's not another boater out here.

I I'll be honest with you. I think the better thing is going to be just to push it into the shore. If you can get into it and push it into the shore, I think you'll be better off. Good thing is he was waving his hands and moving around. So maybe he's just falling. He can't get up. Well, in a second I will. Yes. Cuz what I'm going to try and do is go along the outside of him.
