KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — A deployed Tennessee National Guardsman who returned home from Iraq on leave to see his son being born got an unexpected delivery of another kind at his house in Knox County.
Sgt. Doug Edmisten was in a hospital delivery room on Monday with his wife, Megan, when an out-of-control construction truck rolled down a hill and into the couple’s home in Powell.
Edmisten told The Knoxville News Sentinel that the truck also hit a gas meter, causing police to evacuate half a dozen homes. His son, Micah, was born at 2:50 p.m. The soldier cut the umbilical cord and then left to see the damage at home.
He is asking for an extension of his leave so he can take care of the damage.
