Travis Barker was released from the Joseph M. Still Burn Center at Doctors Hospital in Augusta, Georgia, on Monday morning (September 29), a spokesperson for the hospital confirmed to MTV News.
The drummer spent nine days at the center after the plane crash that took the lives of four people and seriously injured Barker and DJ AM. Barker underwent treatment for severe burns on his torso and lower body.
“Travis is in good condition and was discharged this morning,” Frits told People.com on Monday. “He has left Augusta.”
DJ AM is among the mourners who attended a memorial service in Los Angeles Monday for Chris “Lil’ Chris” Baker, who died in the Learjet crash that killed four and wounded two on Sept. 20 in Columbia, South Carolina.
DJ AM, whose real name is Adam Goldstein, arrived in a limousine to pay respects to Baker, 29. More than 300 people turned out to honor Baker, and many friends stood up to share their memories of him at the memorial service, which lasted two hours.
Baker was a close friend and assistant to musician Travis Barker, who was also injured in the crash. “He was his right-hand man,” actor Simon Rex told PEOPLE after the tragedy.
Baker is survived by his wife, Otillia Villar, and 2-year-old son, Sebastian.
Goldstein, dressed in a green polo shirt, followed Villar’s request that people wear green – Baker’s favorite color – to honor her husband’s memory.
Goldstein, who suffered burns in the crash, was released from Doctors Hospital in Augusta, Ga., last Friday. Barker, was released from the hospital Monday and is on his way back to Los Angeles on a bus.
