VERO BEACH (CBSMiami) – The 911 call for the man who was fatally stabbed at a Vero Beach McDonalds has been released.

Kevin Adorno, 28, was killed while biking from Maryland to Miami to propose to his girlfriend who lives in South Florida.

911 operator: Hello 911?

Caller: I need an ambulance at the McDonalds on US1 right across the street from Burger King. Someone got stabbed in the heart. Immediately, please come right now.

911 operator: All right, we'll get right over there.

Caller: He's going into cardiac arrest. Please! Please get an ambulance here.

Adorno suffered serious stab wounds to his chest and arms in an unprovoked attack while talking to his girlfriend on a cellphone outside of the restaurant.  He stumbled back inside the McDonalds but was pronounced dead a short time later at Indian River Memorial Hospital.
