Here is some updates on him. He has third degree burns on his back and other various places on his body. The part of the roof that collapsed on him was on fire which left him trapped under flaming debris. When the roof crashed his fellow firefighters rushed in to save him and they retrieved him and his friends from the wreckage very quickly. He was conscious when they pulled him out but he was pretty much in too much pain to really do anything. I know it is a chemically induced coma to keep him from having to go through all the pain. He has a broken arm, two ribs, and a sprained ankle along with his burns. I know that if he was awake he would be trying to make jokes about it like how the chicks dig the scars and he would be getting on to all of us for worrying. I will keep everyone updated as best as I can.

This came out in the paper, I am going to paraphrase.

Three firefighters were trapped under a roof on Saturday at around 4:15 when they responded to a call at an apartment complex. Austin Lewis Drake, Connor Clark Peters, and Rich Michael Frawning were all trapped under a roof when it gave way to the fire. Immediately a rescue was mounted by the local fire department and all three were pulled from the wreckage. Austin and Connor were both air lifted to Vanderbilt while Rich was left without any major wounds. "It is one of those things that just can happen sometimes." says Rich in an interview. "Its our job and we know the risks. Austin and Connor are two brave men and they would gladly do it again if asked." Austin has been with the fire department for about a year now, and he had made a name for himself as one of the bravest firefighters in Cookeville. "Austin is one of those guys who puts other people first no matter what. He does not care if the odds are against him 99 to 1, he is going to go with that 1 percent chance."

The rest just says that he is in Vanderbilt and in intensive care. I kinda just rewrote it in my own words but thats the jist of it.
