MAN PINNED UNDER VAN

TMC NEWS / BRIAN WOODS

Elyria – An Elyria man was helping his sister-in-law Monday morning by working on her minivan when the van fell on top of him – pinning his arm.

The man was working on the passenger side front wheel area when the jack slipped and the van fell – trapping the man’s arm between the jack & the van frame.

Elyria Firefighters responded to the 100 block of Marseilles just after 9 a.m. and worked for just under twenty minutes using tools to raise the van to safely extricate the man from under the van.

LifeCare Paramedics treated the man on scene and transported him to Elyria Memorial Hospital for further evaluation.
