Older brother recalls saving 10-year-old in Hawkins County ATV crash

In Hawkins County, Tennessee, a 10-year-old boy was involved in an ATV accident with a car on a typical Saturday evening. Fortunately, the boy survived thanks to the quick response of someone close to him, Ayden Harville. As a junior member of the Hawkins County Rescue Squad, his training played a crucial role when his brother needed help after the accident. Harville had been assisting his father nearby when the accident occurred, and he immediately rushed to the scene to provide aid to his injured brother. Despite the tense situation, Harville's training helped him assess the injuries and take necessary precautions, such as stabilizing his brother's neck and calling for emergency assistance. Luckily, his brother was wearing protective gear which likely saved his life. The Harville family stresses the importance of safety gear and commends the Rescue Squad for their valuable training. Captain Corey Young expressed immense pride in Ayden's actions, emphasizing how his training as a junior member directly contributed to the positive outcome of the incident.
