WEST FRANKFORT, Ill.—Emergency services in West Frankfort were dispatched about a half-hour ago to a location in town where a man has been reported suffering broken legs after jumping off a roof.
We’ve not heard why he jumped (whether he was working on the roof and lost his ladder, etc).
We do know that at about 12:10 p.m., air evac was dispatched for him, as the breaks are being termed “severe injuries.”
Keep checking back; if we get more, we’ll post it.
