Trooper Troy Withers of the Tennessee Highway Patrol, who investigated the accident, told WGNS partner station WJLE that Dillon may have suffered a broken hip and other injuries.

Dillon was a passenger of a 2002 Chevy Tahoe, driven by 34 year old Mark D. Young of Smithville. According to Trooper Withers, Young went off the right side of the road as he topped a hill and then overcorrected. The Tahoe went out of control, hit a ditch, and became airborne, before crashing into a tree.

Young received minor injuries.

Charges are pending in the case.
