WEST MEMPHIS, ARKANSAS (WMC) - A car belonging to a West Memphis doctor exploded Wednesday morning when he got into the car according to West Memphis Police.

This happened at 8 a.m. at Doctor Trent Pierce's home on North Avalon Street and West Cooper Avenue in West Memphis.

Dr. Pierce was airlifted to the Med in Memphis where he is in critical condition.

A family friend says Pierce has been taken to surgery at the Med to remove metal from his abdomen.

He also has eye injuries and burns.

The family friend says Dr. Pierce went to his Lexus hybrid Wednesday morning to warm up the car when his wife heard a boom.

She found her husband lying in a flower bed in front of the house.

Police are not sure what happened, but they do not believe foul play is involved.

ATF, FBI and other investigators are on the scene trying to figure out what happened.

The car was a Lexus hybrid.

Dr. Pierce is a family doctor who specializes in asthma.
