Yesterday, Serena Williams visited Sean Kingston, who was injured during a jet ski accident over the weekend and we have the pics inside. Also, both Jonathan Rivera, the man who saved Sean, and Cassandra Sanchez, who was with Sean during the accident, are speaking out. Deets inside.....
Serena Williams was spotted visiting her friend Sean Kingston in the hospital yesterday. After leaving the hospital she tweeted:
I am thankful that I have today. Tomorrow is not promised to any of us. I'm gonna make every day the best I can. #loveuSeankingston
And the man who helped save Sean's life has been speaking out too...
Sean Kingston was rescued by an off-duty member of the Coast Guard, Jonathan Rivera, who told TMZ that Sean was "puking up blood out of his mouth."
Jonathan said he was driving his boat around Star Island when he noticed an empty jet ski and then saw Sean and Cassandra Sanchez in the water floating. He said Sean's friends were trying to help Sean keep his head above water but his size was a problem for them and his life vest had come off.
Jonathan made his way to the accident and wrapped his arms around Sean to help keep his head above water. He says, Sean was "convulsing and throwing up blood all over me." He held onto Sean for about 15 minutes, until a police boat finally arrived.
Jimmy Vega, who was with Jonathan at the time, told a local reporter,
"We were about to turn back around [and go home] when we noticed him. I truly believe if we did turn around, he would not be with us today."
TMZ also spoke to Sean's passenger/girlfriend Cassandra Sanchez who said they were going "really fast" when they crashed into the bridge over the weekend.
Cassandra told TMZ,
"Both jet skis pulled out of the dock at the same time and we were going so fast we just blasted past them. When we turned a corner and crashed ... they were so far behind us they didn't even see us crash."
She continued by saying that as Sean was racing towards the bridge, she screamed out,
"We can't fit under there! Are we going to try and go under there? Sean stop!"
After the crash she said,
"[Sean] was coughing up blood, foam and pink stuff" ... and when he finally opened his eyes, he kept repeating the words, "I'm hurting. I'm hurting"
Asked about Sean's progress she said,
"They have a tube down his throat so he can't really talk, but he is lucid and understands what's going on."
She added he will remain in the hospital a few weeks.
