MIAMI -- A Florida teenager who was struck in the skull by a three-foot spear is on the road to recovery.
The 16-year-old was accidentally shot while fishing earlier this month.
Doctors say remarkably, the spear missed every major blood vessel and did not hit the portion of the brain that controls speech.
A team of surgeons found a way to remove the spear.
The teen will have some trouble using the left side of his body. But otherwise, he's expected to make a full recovery.
