A firefighter at the Jackson Volunteer Fire Department was hospitalized on Tuesday evening after an ATV crash on the Middle Fork.
Isaac Spencer was transported by emergency vehicles to the Kentucky River Medical Center after 6:30 p.m.
According to sources, Spencer and another rider wrecked an ATV near his home on Highway 2469 (Highland Road).
He was transported to Jackson Hospital and later transferred by ambulance to Lexington. Spencer was scheduled for surgery early on Wednesday morning.
