ACSO: Adair teenager seriously injured in single vehicle accident

From Sheriff Josh Brockman
Adair County Sheriff's Office

On Friday, April 26, 2024, at 5:59pmCT, the Adair County Sheriff's Office was dispatched to Edmonton Road, 2 miles west of Columbia, to a reported auto collision.

Preliminary investigation shows that 16 year old Jack Fishback was operating a 2004 Ford Ranger west on Edmonton Road. Fishback dropped off the right hand shoulder of the highway and in attempt to recover vehicle, he overcorrected. Fishback lost control of his vehicle and it crossed the oncoming lane and exited the roadway on the left side down an embankment.


Evidence suggest that Fishback had wrecked almost an hour before he was found. A passing motorist thought he saw a reflection of the sun over the embankment as he drove by, and thankfully turned around to go back and see what it was.

Fishback was treated on scene by Adair County EMS, then transported to TJ Health Columbia. From there, he was taken by Air Evac to the University of Kentucky.

Deputy Jason Camfield is continuing the investigating. Responding agencies included Adair County Sheriff's Office, Adair County 911, Columbia-Adair County Fire Department, and Adair County EMS.
