Vince Putt

[84vanagon]

I just got some bad news. Vince Putt was beaten up pretty badly in Georgia. I don't know any details, but the doctors are going to have to wait for the swelling to go down before they can operate. He has some broken bones in his face. Please keep him in your thoughts.

Wow, that's terrible to hear! I haven't seen Vince for awhile as he used to come to our CPMCC meetings.

Hope everything works out well and for a speedy recovery!

Any details as to who it was, and if they were arrested?

My wife Karen came down to Georgia to pick me up.

I'll be visiting the plastic surgeoun in the next few days after the swelling goes down. They can't operate till that happpens.

Here's what happened. My crew and I travel around the country doing conversion work at TV stations for digital. We have a news van and a 16ft trailer that is our mobile shop. We were turning into a restraunt in Macon and we turned ito the wrong driveway. We ended in a medical center lot and there was no place to turn around the truck and trailer. I got out of the truck to guide my partner back while he backed the trailer into the highway. A dodge truck that was coming down the highway swerved at me at the last minute. I saw a guy get out out of the truck I thought he was going to help us. Next thing I knew I was stagering across the highway. I don't know what happened. Luckily for me there were two paramedics sitting in an ambulance in the driveway of the med center. As soon as they saw the hoodlums wailing on me they turned on the lights. They freaked and go back in the truck and speed off. The paramedics were with me by the time I made it to the curb.

The police I meet at the hospital told me their has been reports the previous nights of a gang of 4 guys beating homeless people up at random.

I guess I was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Anyway I have many facial injuries. Virtually ever bone on the right side of my face is broke and my total sinus cavity is collappased and shattered. Somehow I haven't lost any teeth but my entire right upper jaw is about an inch away from my left upper jaw.

Funny I'm not in a lot of pain, maybe it's the morphine. When I try to talk the bones in my head sound like a bag of potatoe chips crumbling inside my head.

Anyway I have to wait for a few days for the swelling to go down before I can see a plastic surgeon nad se what he can do for me.

Thanks for the well wishes.

######, Vince. That's just unreal. I'm hoping for a full recovery for you. I hope they catch the scumbags who did this.
