North Vernon, IN—Saturday, a Commiskey couple arrived at the Jennings County Sheriff’s Office/Rescue 20. They were requesting an ambulance for their 2-year-old grandson.
According to statements given by the grandparents to deputies, they stated that the grandfather was mowing the yard on Grayford Road. The toddler ran towards his grandfather as the grandmother ran after him. As the grandfather was backing up the mower, the 2-year-old fell and went under the mower while it was mowing.
The grandparents met with Rescue 20 and the grandson was transported to St. Vincent Jennings Hospital. He was shortly flown from the hospital to Riley Hospital for serious injuries.
Deputies are still investigating and thus far are calling it a terrible accident.
