As reported by the police in the Hochsauerlandkreis, the man parked his vehicle on Friday at a precipitous point in the North Rhine-Westphalian town of Eslohe. Then he noticed the investigators that the car got rolling. He tried to hold the car - but he crashed and was dragged about 25 meters from the vehicle.
According to the police, the car rolled in the district Cobbenrode first against a fence, tore it from the anchorage and came only by a tree stump on a steep bank to a halt.
The man was trapped under the car and had to be released by the fire department. The senior, however, was lucky in the accident and pulled in the accident only minor injuries, said the investigators.
