A man was run over by a St. Petersburg (FL) Fire Rescue truck as it was pulling out of quarters, as it was responding to a 911 call about the same man this afternoon.
911 received a report a man who was bleeding in front of Fire Rescue Headquarters. He turned out to be 41-year-old Ted Lenox, who is a homeless man known in the downtown area.
A few minutes after that call he turned up a block away at Rescue Station 5, which is located on 8th Street.
Mr Lenox then laid down in the driveway of the fire station, while the bay doors were still closed. A FF/EMT began to pull out of the station, and Lenox got caught in the truck's undercarriage. The FF/EMT and the FF/Paramedic who were riding in the truck felt the impact as the truck ran over Lenox's legs.
Lenox was extricated from under the truck and then taken to a trauma unit where his injuries are described as life-threatening. The FF's who accidentally ran over Lenox were responding to the 1st 911 call about him.
Investigators said there was no way that the FF's could have seen Lenox based on the position he had put himself in. They said he might have been drinking and in fact might have called 911 on himself.
