update on the kid that got hit by the truck

I talked to his dad yesterday evening. The boy is out of ICU and in a regular room now. He's pretty banged up but according to his dad he may get out of the hospital Friday or Saturday. The guy driving the pickup and the one guy that tried to fill a bogus prescription are in jail. The passenger that jumped out is doing ok and I haven't heard what charges the passengers are going to face but the driver has been charged with some kind of forgery in relation to the prescription and also hit and run and I think assault with a vehicle and I would think running a stop sign and a host of other things. Best news is Tanner should make a full recovery its just going to take a bit of time.

As far as I know he had a concussion but it looks like no severe damage

He is one fortunate lad, and I know the rest of us appreciate you doing what you can to help.
