Christopher Bryan Kenny, 16, Bellair, Florida flew into powerlines while kite-surfing last week near the causeway over St. Joseph's Sound near Dunedin, Florida. He is reported to be in serious condition at St. Joseph's Hospital in Tampa.

The accident happened about 4 p.m. on September 30 when the wind pulled Kenny into the power lines on the north side of the Dunedin Causeway. Witnesses saw an electric arc when Kenny hit the lines. Then he fell 20 to 30 feet to the ground.
