Police said the man was working on his vehicle at the Hunter's Creek nursing home located on Town Loop Boulevard when the vehicle jumped forward and ran him over, pinning him to the ground. The catalytic converter then caught his clothes on fire, Local 6 News reported. Two Orange County sheriff's deputies responded and lifted the vehicle off the burned man.

gamecocks Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 My uncle had something something similiar happen to him. He wasn't burn or anything, but a tractor he was working on, rolled off its blocks and rolled over his legs and trapped him underneath it for about a half hour until the neighbors came and realized something was wrong.
