Fergus Falls Soldier Injured In Iraq (Kristopher Clark)

Kristopher Clark, 22, recently was injured while on patrol.

Clark's father, Bruce Clark, says his son was hurt when the Humvee he was traveling in drove over either a landmine or an improvised explosive device.

Bruce Clark says the explosion sent shrapnel through the floor of the Humvee and struck his son in the foot.

Kristopher Clark is on his way back to the U.S. to be treated at the Bethesda Hospital in Maryland. His father says it appears Clark won't lose his foot from the injury.
