One of our local family physicians is in extremely critical condition this morning at The Med, our trauma center in Memphis, TN where he was airlifted.
Around 8 AM, he was going to his car...they don't know if he was at the car, opening the door of the car or had gotten in the car and started it when the car exploded. This happended in his driveway at his home.
He drives a Lexus hybrid. It is unknown at this time if it was a car bomb or something to do with the hybrid car itself. The local police are "hoping" it had something to do with the engine of this hybrid.
The ATF and FBI have been brought in to investigate the explosion.
This man is a wonderful, caring physician, Christian who is always doing things for his community.
Please pray for God's hand to be upon him and his precious family...wife and 2 children.
Update: Per a close family friend has said he will need a miracle because he is so severly burned.
We serve a God of miracles!
Have a wonderfully blessed day!

ReplyDeleteI believe this is the doctor on fox news that they are saying it was a terrorist attack on him. I prayed for him as soon as I heard it on the news. Awful!
