That poor kid lost one great dad who was willing to do anything for him.

Except, apparently, to set the parking brake and leave the car in gear. Tragic, to be sure, and also noble -- but it took a very stupid mistake to set it up.

Most Hyundai Santa Fe's are automatic. Bet this was one as well. The transmission may have slipped out of "park".

All mistakes are stupid when viewed w/ 20/20 hindsight, else they would be "lucky breaks".
