"I called him on the phone not thinking he would answer," said Lowndes Middle Principal Dr. Derald C. Jones. "I thought his wife would answer. Well, he answered the phone. He is not one to talk too much about himself. He kind of minimized the damage and said it's not that bad. He did receive second and third degree burns on his feet."

Mitchell coaches three sports for the school and he coaches with the Boys and Girls club. He did have surgery on his foot. His family says he is recovering well.
