A Saguaro High School football player is in a coma this morning after a skateboarding accident. Jake Dunn, a senior, hit his head while longboarding with his friends Sunday. The Sabercat linebacker fell while trying to avoid a car that had pulled out in front of him. Dunn was not wearing a helmet at the time. According to one neurosurgeon, these types of accidents can cause major injuries.
"The most tragic accidents we see are, of course, the low-velocity accidents which are bicycle and skateboard accidents with people who are not wearing helmets," said Dr. Nicholas Theodore.
Dunn's family is hoping for the best, saying their son is the strength in the family. They say it's that strength that has kept them going.
