Two fundraisers are scheduled in the coming days to help an Oak Harbor man defray the medical costs stemming from a suspected assault that took place last week.
Chris Cooper, 23, is currently at Harborview Medical Center. His father, Terry Cooper, describes Chris’s condition as a comatose state.
“He has not been conscious since they found him on Pioneer Way,” Terry Cooper said Tuesday. A passerby, believed to be someone who delivered newspapers, discovered an unconscious Chris Cooper in front of a SE Pioneer Way storefront about a block away from the Highway 20 intersection.
