Father doing yardwork killed by his own truck after child set it rolling, police say

A younger father doing yardwork at his Utah dwelling was killed when his son, taking part in in a pickup truck’s cab, brought on the car to roll down a slope and run him over, police mentioned.

The person’s mom, working alongside him, was critically injured.

The accident was reported round 4:30 p.m. Saturday within the 2-year-old Summit Ridge subdivision in Santaquin, alongside Interstate 15 about 20 miles south of Provo.

The truck had been parked on a slope within the yard, and the pair had been loading landscaping rocks into the mattress. The kid reportedly pulled on the truck’s gear shift and, although the car was not operating, was in a position to knock it out of substances, the police report mentioned. The truck rolled backward, hanging the 23-year-old man and his 47-year-old mom.

The person died on the scene; the lady, with extreme accidents, was flown to a hospital, police mentioned.

A GoFundMe web page posted by an individual figuring out herself as the person’s sister-in-law mentioned he was married and the daddy of two boys, ages 3 and 5. She later amended the report back to say that, after the dying, the widow went to the emergency room for an undisclosed criticism and realized she was pregnant.
