Marcus Stoner is a man with a mission that is beginning to sound like mission impossible.

Stoner wants his story heard. He goes far and wide to tell it. He has told it to the police, to lawyers, to the courts. But no one will listen to him, no one will see his side, no one understands.

A Florida man who was in a serious auto accident on I-64 Dec. 22 is now on the way back for treatment, said Detective Jason Rice.

Terry Ray, of Orlando, was involved in the accident near 38-mile marker, a location of numerous accidents this year.

Ray drove off the road and into a ravine, and firefighters had to lift him back up to the roadway using a winch. He was airlifted to the University of Louisville. Detective Jason Rice said Ray ran off the road due to a medical condition.

Two different accidents – one after a high-speed police chase – at the same location early Saturday morning have left one Shelby County man in critical condition and a Shelby County fire truck heavily damaged, Fire Chief Bobby Cowherd said.

Casey McCall of Simpsonville was airlifted to the University of Louisville, where he remains in critical condition after his vehicle struck a fire truck on La Grange Road.
