A 16-year-old Roane County High School student remains in critical condition in
Charleston Area Medical Center. Jeremy Abbott of Newton was injured over a week
ago on State Route 36 at Clover, after he lost control of his pick-up truck while
traveling to school. Abbott was thrown from the vehicle after it rolled over several
times.
A Spencer man, Jason Jordan, 23, is in serious condition in the Huntington burn
center after a propane gas "exploded" while he was inhaling the substance on his
porch. Jordan was on home confinement when the incident occurred on Thanksgiving
Day. He received injuries to his face and lungs, according to the Roane County
Sheriff's Department. They said he was on home confinement because his license
was revoked for a DUI.
