A 69-year-old man was seriously injured after he was hit and pinned under a van leaving a car wash bay in Wareham, Massachusetts, police said.
The incident happened at the Soft Touch Car Wash at 3083 Cranberry Highway around 1:15 p.m. Thursday.
Police said the victim, who is from Middleboro, was hit, dragged a short distance and trapped under the van in the parking lot. Fire officials said they arrived at the scene and were able to lift the van off the victim, whose name has not been released.
