Son Risks LIfe To Save Dad

A Boone County man risked his own life to save his dad on Saturday morning. Officials have not released any names in the case, but said the two were spreading anhydrous ammonia on a farm field when the tanks started to leak. Officials said a cloud of toxic gas quickly surrounded the tractor. They said the man's son jumped onto the tractor and climbed inside, trying to drive the tractor out of the cloud. Unfortunately, it was too late. His dad died at the scene. The son was treated and released from the hospital.
