Police Say George Jones Was Sober

Country singer George Jones had an opened bottle of vodka under the driver's seat of his car at the time of his near-fatal, one-car accident Sunday in Franklin, Tenn., a Tennessee Highway Patrol spokesperson, Dana Keeton, said. But she also said the investigating trooper does not suspect Jones was drunk at the time of the accident. Jones, 67, suffered a severely lacerated liver after crashing his 1999 Lexus sports-utility vehicle along Route 96, a state highway. He is still listed in critical condition at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.
