In an incident that stunned police, a 21-year-old man did not suffer an injury after his wheelchair was lodged in the grill of a tractor-trailer truck and pushed for about four miles before he was discovered stuck on the truck's front end.
The truck about 4 p.m. Wednesday was pulling out of a gas station parking lot on Red Arrow Highway as the man was passing in front of the truck, Michigan State Police with the Paw Paw Post said.
The handles on the back of the wheelchair became lodged in the truck's grill, without the driver knowing it, said Trooper Kelley Whiting.
After traveling about four miles, and at speeds of 50 mph, the truck pulled into the Ralph Moyle Trucking Co., where the man was discovered stuck in the truck's grill. The driver refused to believe there was a man in a wheelchair stuck in his truck's front end until he saw it himself, troopers said.
