Jason was transported to the hospital shortly after via helicopter where he underwent surgery for his injuries.

Faminoff has set the fundraising goal to $5000 to help Jason financially as he takes time off work to recover from the incident.

So far, $320 has been raised by eight people for the fundraiser.
