911 Call: The Amputation

Tag: General InterestKevin Hail @ 8:17 pm

This is crazy.  A guy accidentally cuts his whole arm off with a chainsaw and following is his neighbor’s 911 transcript describing the incident.  I’ve attached a sample.  Follow the link to read the whole thing and the outcome.

John Stirling

Operator Ambulance emergency. Hello, caller, what’s the emergency?

Steve Francis [Neighbour, voice shaking] A man’s cut his arm off.

Op OK, when you say he’s cut his arm off, has he cut if off completely?

SF Hold on … [To John] Is it, what’s happened?

John Stirling [In background] I’ve cut it right off.

SF He’s cut it completely off. Quick, quick.

Op OK, how’s he done it?

SF I don’t know, chainsaw or some-thing. Let me just tie him up, hold on.

Op OK, I’ve got help on the way. I need to go through some questions with you, but it’s not delaying us, OK? You’re with him at the moment, are you…..
