Piranhas Injure 70 People Bathing In Rock River

Piranhas Injure 70 People Bathing In Rock River

[Update June 10th, 2014]

A hungry attack by piranhas has injured 70 people bathing in the Rock River, including seven children and eighteen homeless veterans who lost parts of their legs, arms, hands, feet, fingers or toes.

Rock River People BathingRockford, IL – Director of lifeguards Frederico Dontavio said today that “thousands of bathers were enjoying 70-degree temperatures in the Rock River in The Rockford yesterday when bathers suddenly began complaining of bite marks on their hands and feet.”

He blamed the attack on polentatitis, “a type of midwestern piranha, big, voracious and with sharp teeth that can really bite your face off if you didn’t bathe your last meal scraps off your face well enough.”

RKFDnews, Believe, Book, Buy on Amazon or Barnes and NobleParamedic Alonzo Monini said some children he treated lost entire legs.

Rockford’s Homeless Pop Star, Johnny Emerald The IIIrd, had this to tell us, “I eat dem fish!  Stop bathing in the river, that’s my bath tub!

Two years ago piranhas attacked and killed a young lady named Linda who leapt into the Rock River near Beloit, WI. The 18-year-old victim was drunk when she jumped out of a canoe to pee in the river.

Flesh-eating fish will be a concern this summer in the Rockford area.  Homeless people and children are advised to stay away from bathing in the Rock River until late fall early winter.

You will not learn anything until you know more about bathing safely in the Rock River.

    It is hilarious to see individuals who are angrily commenting about how this is so fake and going as far as explaining why. No s**t it’s fake, it’s meant to be entertaining and I found it both comical and amusing. Still not sure which was more amusing though, the actual story or all of these angry comments.

    I do believe this simply because Bull Sharks are able to adapt to freshwater so why couldn’t piranha’s? I just don’t understand why y’all are so defensive lmao sure maybe it’s NOT TRUE but never take anything with a grain of salt especially in the times web are living in lol. I am so amused by how LITTLE things get people to start fighting and acting irrationally lmao????

    If this site was real, the editors wouldn’t waste time in replying to silly comments. Including this one. Just saying. Someone is bored. And the noose thing is a bit childish.

    oh shit, sorry I let the fish out. Again. But, not all are the Polentatitis type, I just wanted to let you know that I also let the Gnocchirhombus out as well. They are much more aggressive, and totally go for the penis every time. From the gate below the Register Star building. The gate below the brewery tower wasn’t working, you might send Stan to fix the hydraulics on that one. Thanks!

    This is so fake. There is no such thing as a “Midwestern type of piranha”. Piranha’s and their relatives are found in the amazon. A quick google search of “polentatitis” will literally only give you 4 hits; this, two from some Instagram crap, and something in French.

    Also, if 70 people where really attacked by piranhas in the US it would probably make national headlines, like the snakehead thing years ago, and not just be on some local page. So sorry everyone but this is a very fake article written by some loser that’s still leaving in their mom’s basement and needs attention.

    Something must be done about this! These monsters are endangering those eco-friendly bathers enjoying what nature has provided! Will this force people to use indoor facilities where they could slip and fall, HAVE to pay for water and waste so much of it down the drain? With the amount of hunters and fishermen in the area, I think a Piranha hunting season should be mandated for the sake of all local bathers!

          A waste to you and your time, yes, but it’s not a waste to those who know exactly what they’re doing and why. When new jobs are created from a thousand bad ideas that turn into one or two brilliant ones that can provide a few people the American Dream that you obviously don’t have time for, well, that’s your waste of time. Now, go on back to your desk and answer to others like you have been trained to do or raise your little kittens to play with yarn balls. Your noose will never break, no need to hang in there. Enjoy your empty sandwich.
