Florida Fish and Wildlife Investigators are looking into an incident about a mile off the coast of Palm Beach near the Breakers that left a freediver in serious condition.

Investigators say Jorge Caba is out of surgery with a gash on his leg and a broken pelvis.

Caba said he is in a lot of pain.

Investigators say a boater ran him over off the coast and took off.

They say Caba had a dive flag and didn’t do anything wrong.
