From Diver rescued off Lake Worth Inlet - South Florida Sun-Sentinel.com
A diver was brought to shore Saturday after possibly suffering a cardiac arrest in the waters off the Lake Worth Inlet, according to Palm Beach County Fire-Rescue.

The incident happened before noon and the person who called 911 was giving the diver CPR and believed he was suffering a heart attack, said Deputy Chief Steve Delai, of Palm Beach County Fire-Rescue.

The diver was in critical condition, he said.
 
If it's the same incident, the details are very, very wrong. We were much closer to Jupiter Inlet (where we returned) than Lake Worth Inlet, and the person giving CPR was most definitely not the person calling in the emergency. So, they're either separate incidents, or a very inaccurate article.
