----Anybody know who was running this show and who Feathers is??
Somerville Police Chief Kenny Feathers remained at the Regional Medical Center at Memphis today as doctors tried to determine what happened to him during a charity wrestling event over the weekend.
Feathers was participating as one of the wrestlers in the event Saturday evening at the town’s old high school when he suddenly was injured.
Feathers was being airlifted to The Med by helicopter when he went into full cardiac arrest, Somerville Mayor Bob Morris said. He was stabilized and proceeded to The Med.
“We’re not sure it was caused by the event,” Morris said. “He’s done it before for charity… he loves doing it.”
Somerville residents will hold a candlelight vigil for their injured chief this evening at the Pit Stop parking lot.
The wrestling event was to benefit Matt Kelley, a Somerville resident who was injured after being trapped under rubble when a tornado leveled his dorm at Union University in Jackson on Feb. 5.
