Injured Everett skateboarder's condition improving

EVERETT — The Everett boy seriously injured in a skateboarding accident last week has improved, hospital officials said today.

AC Thomson, 15, was in satisfactory condition at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle and was moved out of the intensive care unit, spokeswoman Susan Gregg-Hanson said. He was listed in critical condition for several days.

On April 22, AC was being towed by a pickup when he apparently hit a manhole cover and fell. He was run over by the truck.

The boy was unconscious when he was taken by helicopter to the Seattle hospital, where he remains.

Police continue to investigate.

Donations to help pay for family expenses can be made to the AC Thomson Hurt Fund at any Frontier Bank.
