Among his injuries were nine broken vertebrae, a ruptured spleen, broken hand and a collapsed lung. [...] "We're just lucky we're bringing our kid home [to North Dakota] in a car in the front seat instead of in a box."

... I'm not sure that's the best way to transport someone who was just diagnosed with nine broken vertebrae.

I think they meant that they will drive him home in the front seat. The article seems to be written within the same week as the accident, I can’t imagine he’s been released from the hospital yet.

I thought it was odd, too - but from the article it seems like he has.

He was flown to hospital with serious injuries but has since been discharged.
