Trigg Deputy Showing Improvement After Collapse

Trigg County Sheriff’s Deputy Jason Key is continuing to show improvements following a Friday night collapse while he was responding to a call.

Sheriff Jason Barnes says Deputy Key was able to eat for the first time Sunday since he was flown to Skyline Medical Center late Friday night.  Barnes adds Key is doing much better.

Reports indicate Deputy Key suffered a high blood pressure incident while on duty Friday night.  His blood pressure reportedly got so high that his brain started to swell, which caused the blood vessels to spasm and resulted in the Deputy collapsing and hitting his head on the cruiser.
He pulled over along Main Street in Cadiz Friday night while responding to a call.
