The owner of Johnson's Standard Station in Kinmundy received a hand injury when a spring in a grain truck failed when he was putting tire jacks under the truck to change a flat tire. Chuck Johnson of Kinmundy was working on the truck owned by Roger and Cathy Jones on the side of Route 37 in Farina Friday afternoon when the accident occurred. Kinmundy-Alma Fire Chief Kevin Day says Johnson had his hand on the first jack while putting the second one into place when the spring failed. The sudden weight shift forced part of the top of the jack to go through the upper palm of Johnson's hand and trapped him under the truck. Day says the Farina Fire Department used their jaws of life to free Johnson. He was then transported to St. Anthony's Hospital by Kinmundy-Alma Ambulance where he underwent surgery on his hand.
