Local pastor in critical condition after fall, family asking for prayers

FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- A local pastor is in critical condition after experiencing a fall last week.

The family of Pastor H. Spees says he fell on Wednesday and was taken to the hospital with a head injury.

Surgery was performed but due to swelling and difficulty breathing, he is currently in a coma.

Health officials are monitoring his condition and hope once the swelling reduces, he can regain some functions.

The family is asking for prayers at this time.
