DEVILS LAKE, N.D. A man ran over himself with his pickup after
trying to spit outside his driver’s side door, police said.
Earl Sanderson, 78, was treated and released from Mercy Hospital on Thursday. Devils Lake Police Chief Bruce Kemmet said Sanderson only suffered some minor bumps, scrapes and bruises.
Kemmet said Sanderson was turning off Highway 19 when he opened his door to spit. As he was leaning, his vehicle traveled across two lanes of
>traffic and landed in a ditch. Sanderson fell out of the vehicle and the truck ran over him, Kemmet said.
