Airboats, the iconic crafts with a fan on the back that cruise through the Everglades, aren't known for being dangerous. However, late yesterday afternoon, a teenage girl was injured while aboard one of the boats and had to be airlifted to a hospital.
Officials say her injuries were not life-threatening, but the original 911 call reported that her arm might have been severed. Few details have been released about the exact nature of the injuries or how they happened.
