(AP) – A 14-year-old southeast Missouri boy remains hospitalized
after falling through a school’s skylight.
The Kennett Daily Dunklin Democrat reports that the incident happened before
5:30 a.m. Friday. A 16-year-old boy ran to the police department asking for
help.
Police say the 14-year-old was on the roof of Kennett Middle School when he
fell through a skylight over the band room. Officials say they’re still piecing
together why the two were on the school roof.
The boy suffered a back injury in the fall and was airlifted to Le Bonheur
Children’s Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee. Details about his injuries have not
been disclosed. The 16-year-old wasn’t hurt.
