An unlucky man was involved in a freak accident during the evening of December 5 2021 . This happened in the parking lot of Parx Casino in Bensalem.   It was just after 7:40 PM when the male arrived and pulled into a parking spot. He was alone in the car. What happened next is under investigation. 

 

However, we do know the car started to roll backwards and the male jumped in and was not able to stop the vehicle from rolling backwards. Instead, he apparently slipped and got run over  and trapped under his own vehicle. He was on the ground for about 10 minutes before rescue companies from Nottingham and Trevose were able to free him. He recieved serious injuries and was rushed to Jefferson Torresdale Hospital.

 

 

When the car rolled backwards, it bumped into a parked car. That vehicle did not get damaged
