ANTWERP TOWNSHIP, Mich. — One man was injured after being run over by his own pick-up truck.

Deputies say a Paw Paw man pulled over on Red Arrow Highway to get something out of his tailgate, where he accidentally put the truck in reverse causing it to back up and run over him.

Another driver spotted the man underneath the vehicle and was able to get in the truck and drive it off of him.

The injured man was taken to a local hospital and has since been treated and released.
