A 76-year-old man's life was likely spared by circumstance after a bulldozer rolled over him. Firefighters from multiple departments were called to the scene to stabilize the heavy equipment and free the man's legs. The accident occurred when the man's seat broke loose while he was operating the bulldozer, causing him to fall.

The bulldozer then rolled backward, pinning his legs beneath its track. Further details about the incident are available from the Olympia Rural Fire Department, who responded to the emergency. The man was fortunate to be discharged from the hospital after the ordeal.
